Perks of working for West Jet
Hey guys,
I'm excited to be joining the WestJet family, I've heard of all the ups and downs and I'd like to focus more on the ups. People have shared stories with me of random perks, where WestJet employees receive discounts on things like lift passes at Ski Resorts, or the occasional discounted meal.
Has anyone else heard of this, or what are some of your experiences and stories you'd like to share!
Let's keep this positive
Thanks everyone!

Free coffee...
An airline pilot extolling the virtues of free coffee. The bottom of this barrel must be near.
Thanks for the laugh.

Liberalism itself as a religion where its tenets cannot be proven, but provides a sense of moral rectitude at no real cost.

Besides extensive travel related perks, there are just under 800 organizations with deals offered to WestJetters posted on WestNet (the internal intranet). Everything from car dealerships to movers, dry cleaners, restaurants, health clubs, etc. I would say most discounts are 10 to 15%, but some can be more. You will have access to WestNet via a web browser from anywhere once you have a company login ID.Calinadian wrote:Hey guys,

On the travel perks side of things, besides unlimited standby travel, discounted confirmed seats, companion and parents travel and buddy passes, you will also have access to travel industry discounts for cheap cruises and destination resorts via companies such as Dargal and Interline Travel. After 6 months as an employee you can interline standby travel on many other airlines around the world, many of which can be booked online with Zed Travel.
Congratulations on your new job and welcome to WestJet!

Haha hey not gonna lie I would be pretty stoked to receive free Kool aid, good chance I would be winning the number 1 Uncle Award then . Thanks for the responses guys! I am growing more and more excited each day, sounds like you can get some decent perks through the internal website, and those flight benefits seem pretty legit.
