Now, below is Mickey’s post!
hello.
Starting today, here and there
It was a day filled with chats in the group chat room.
WestJet Airlines, a Canadian airline
They announced the launch of a flight to Incheon.
In terms of Korea
Air Canada = Korean Air,
WestJet = Asiana
Isn’t that about the same?
One of the two major mountain range airlines launches Incheon service
Now that it has been announced, the Korean community is bound to be excited.
Shall we briefly summarize the contents?
First service date: May 17, 2024
May 17, 2024
It was set as the first flight date.
It’s Friday. Hahahaha Friday night
Schedule: 3 times a week
YYC-ICN 5:55pm-8:45pm (next day)
ICN-YYC 10:45pm-6:15pm (same day)
Day: TBC
There is a clear difference in opinions regarding time.
People who don’t like it
For those who arrive in Incheon and need to go to a local area
For those who have arrived in Calgary and have a domestic connection
Aircraft type: 787 Dreamliner
787 Dreamliner
Business class: 16 seats
Premium Economy

This is the Dreamliner model that is already familiar from Air Canada. The business is structured in a herringbone shape, shaped like a fishbone.
In business class, this cute
They also provide an amenity kit.
Airline alliance to which WestJet belongs
Still independent!
However, considering that a code-share agreement was signed with Japan Airlines (JAL), a member of ONE WORLD, in November 2022, and that Korean Air and Delta Air Lines are consistently operating code-share flights with SkyTeam, it is unlikely that it will be affiliated with any of them for the time being. I feel the same way.
Earn mileage when flying WestJet
A hot topic in the Korean community today
Mileage accumulation problem
You can earn points with Delta Air Lines .
Delta Air Lines has a very strong shot at short-haul routes . Korean Air miles for the Gimpo-Haneda route are covered for only 7,500, so it’s a really small mileage. This route is a popular route with paid tickets always costing more than 400,000 won.
So, you don’t feel unfair when it comes to mile accumulation, right?
Should I get a WestJet credit card?
As expected, it was the topic of the day.
Many people shouted NONONO, but
I am YESYESYES.^^
The Wedjet card is currently on promotion.
They give you 700 Widget money.
This can be very useful.
If the annual fee wave promotion is added
There is no reason not to make it.
It can be useful in times like these when economy flights are expensive.
Recent ticketing experience using Wejet Money and
I will post the Wejet credit card analysis separately.
WestJet Elite Tier
In fact, even if it’s just silver
– 4 free lounge passes every year
– 8 free seat reservation tickets
– Free baggage
It is quite useful because it has benefits.
It’s a bit difficult to obtain it because you just ride it raw.
There is a great way to get the WestJet elite tier (if you have the Air Canada 35K tier, you might want to take advantage of it).
I will post this separately.
WestJet Partner Airlines
We have partnerships with the four airlines listed above. This means that miles can be interchanged. As explained above that points are earned on Delta when boarding WestJet, you can use Delta miles to purchase WestJet reward seats.
For example,
No one will use mileage deduction like this.^^
WestJet business ticketing is possible with Delta’s wicked deduction rate, so if you study Air France, Qantas, and KLM mileage ticketing rules, you may be able to find an answer.
Today we will briefly explain the basics of WestJet.
I wrote it in a hurry. Phew~~~^^
I am also studying the details.
I will update it gradually.
