Fare information
WestJet flights can be changed or cancelled up until two (2) hours before the flight is scheduled to depart.
Changes and cancellations within 24 hours of booking: Within 24 hours of the original booking time, any changes you make to your booking will only be subject to any difference in fare. If you cancel your flight within 24 hours of the original booking, the full cost of your flight will be refunded to you in the original form of payment, except in the case of flights that are scheduled to depart within 24 hours of the time of booking (i.e., same-day flights), where the cancellation fee per person will be charged, and a refund will be issued to your Travel bank.
Changes outside of 24 hours of booking: Flight changes cannot be made on an UltraBasic fare booked outside of 24-hours of booking. Any changes you make after 24 hours from your original booking time will be subject to any difference in fare and increase in government-imposed taxes or fees.
Same-day changes
A same-day change is a confirmed flight change requested starting at 24 hours before departure where the only difference is the time of departure. This means, when there is an earlier or later flight available, you may make a change, for a fee, at the airport or by calling WestJet (some restrictions apply)

Notice of incorporated terms
Notice - overselling of flights
We’re proud that we do not intentionally oversell our flights – we only sell the same number of seats that we have available on an aircraft. However, there are instances, operationally, where for example we need to switch to a smaller aircraft, or there may be a mechanical issue with a seat, that can create a situation where a flight becomes overbooked. In these cases, we’ll work with our guests and ask for volunteers willing to take a later flight in exchange for compensation.
If there are not enough volunteers, we may need to deny boarding to guests in accordance with their boarding priority. With few exceptions, guests denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. The complete rules for the payment of compensation and our airline's boarding priorities are available at all airport ticket counter and boarding locations. If you’re travelling with one of our partner airlines, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with their terms of carriage.
