Now earn WestJet dollars on Delta
CALGARY, Dec. 11, 2014 /CNW/ - WestJet today
announced a reciprocal frequent flyer agreement with Delta Air
Lines, a code-share partner with WestJet since 2012.
The agreement allows WestJet Rewards members to earn WestJet
dollars on flights marketed and operated by Delta Air Lines, with
access to Delta's extensive global network of more than 300
destinations on six continents.
"Our agreement with Delta Air Lines offers yet another great
benefit to being a part of WestJet Rewards," said Marshall Wilmot, WestJet Vice-President, Product
and Distribution. "The program is growing in scope and recognition
with the recent introduction of Teal, Silver and Gold tiers and the
success of the WestJet RBC World Elite MasterCard, recently voted
Canada's top airline travel
rewards card by Canadian consumers and MoneySense magazine
for the second consecutive year. We will continue to look for ways
to further expand the program to offer members even more benefits
in the future."
In addition to the new accrual agreement, WestJet now also
offers WestJet Rewards members the ability to use WestJet dollars
on all code-share flights marketed by WestJet and operated by
Delta. The two airlines will continue to work together to expand
their relationship even further, including the introduction of full
reciprocal redemption in the coming year that will allow members to
redeem for destinations beyond WestJet's current network.
WestJet is the only national airline in Canada that still owns and operates its
rewards program, offering members direct and immediate access to
flights and vacation packages for travel on any date without any
restrictions or blackout periods. Please visit westjet.com/rewards
