WestJet Wi-Fi

WestJet Connect is our free inflight service that gives your smartphone, tablet or laptop access to entertainment on demand, flight information, and Wi-Fi for a fee. 

WestJet Wi-Fi Presented by TELUS is our newly launched partnership to bring free, high-speed internet to all WestJet Rewards members. You can use it to download your favourite streaming apps so you can watch movies and TV shows during your flight, catch up on work, or stay in touch with friends and family. 

To see the inflight services are available on your flight, you can look up your flight on the WestJet Flight Guide within 72 hours of departure. 

We are in the process of rolling out free WestJet Wi-Fi for the majority of our fleet. Until then, we will still support Wi-Fi via WestJet Connect, which requires guests to pay for access. We appreciate your patience as we continue to introduce new features.   

WestJet Wi-Fi offers high-speed internet, allowing you to log in to your own streaming accounts—like Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, and more—just as you would at home, instead of relying on a built-in content library.

You can look up your flight on the WestJet Flight Guide within 72 hours of departure to see if WestJet Wi-Fi is available on your flight.

WestJet Wi-Fi is available throughout the flight, starting from when you board until you disembark the plane. However, you may be advised to turn off or stow your mobile phone, laptop or other electronic devices during both take-off and landing for safety reasons. 

Mobile devices such as phones and tablets should always be put in Airplane Mode during takeoff and landing. 

Laptops and other larger electronic items must be stowed away during takeoff and landing.

WestJet Wi-Fi helps you stay connected from the moment you board. You can stream movies and TV shows on your favourite streaming apps, message friends and family, access social media, play online games, and much more.  

Please note video or voice calling are not permitted, including calls made using other apps or internet services (such as VoWi-Fi or VoIP). 

You can connect up to three devices on one WestJet Rewards account.  

WestJet Wi-Fi delivers high-speed internet similar to what you would experience at home. You should be able to stream videos, play games, download apps, or scroll your feeds without interruption.  

You can get real-time flight updates by searching your flight number on Google (e.g., “WS123”) or using tracking sites such as FlightAware or Flightradar24. These tools show your current location, speed, and estimated arrival time.
