“Unifying our narrowbody fleet is an important step in delivering the reliable and welcoming experience our guests and WestJetters expect from us,” said Samantha Taylor, WestJet Group Executive Vice-President and Chief Experience Officer. “This milestone creates a stronger foundation for our teams to focus on delivering exceptional service and a seamless travel experience for our guests.”
Aircraft that previously operated with an all-Economy layout will now feature thoughtful design elements and modern amenities to support guests throughout their journey. Premium, Extended Comfort and Economy cabins have been upgraded with the following features:
– Fast and free WestJet Wi-Fi presented by TELUS
– Updated headrest with four-way adjustment capability
– Convenient seatback personal phone/tablet holders
– Modernized charging ports
– Coat hooks
Looking ahead, WestJet will begin to refurbish its legacy narrowbody aircraft to include the enhanced amenities and expanded Extended Comfort cabins now available on the airline’s reconfigured aircraft. This process will begin in September and is expected to be complete by the end of 2027. Approximately 14 Boeing 737-800 aircraft will be updated this year.
WestJet operations teams are also prioritizing updates to the exterior of WestJet’s narrowbody fleet. By the end of 2026, all WestJet aircraft will fly the iconic teal and navy banner.
