Who we are

In 1996, Clive Beddoe and a team of like-minded partners started WestJet with three aircraft, five destinations and 220 friendly WestJetters. Today we operate four different aircraft types and fly to more than 110 destinations in North America, Central America, The Caribbean, Europe and Asia. Our WestJetters are dedicated to flying millions of guests, on more than 700 flights per day, with a fleet of over 180 aircraft.
Our Mission
To enrich the lives of everyone in WestJet's world. We’re proud to have won awards affirming this mission.
Our Vision
- We are Team WestJet. WestJet is people powered.

Our business is to ensure you love where you’re going, whether it’s on the trip of a lifetime or your fourth business trip this month.
Beyond the aircraft
Before ever leaving the runway, thousands of hours of preparation, training and care go into every WestJet flight. Beyond the aircraft provides a behind-the-scenes look at the incredible measures our WestJetters take to ensure the comfort and safety of each and every guest.
