It was ok. Jet was ok but it lacked many convinces we have experienced on other airlines such as in seat entertainment. Space seamed more compact than other airlines. They did not provide the gate to gate assistance we arranged for for our mom who needed a wheel chair.
Due to delays at SFO, my WestJet light missed its connecting WestJet flight. If they had held the plane in Calgary for 15 minutes, 2 families with children would not have been stranded in Calgary for more than 24 hours. I understand the need to be on-time, but when it is the same company, you would think they could make a phone call. Or maybe they could go to a higher altitude to make up for lost time? Instead of attempting to put us on another flight, they rescheduled us for the same connecting flight 24 hours later. We then had to scramble to find a hotel, which they state that they were not responsible for since the delay was not their fault and therefore became an additional out of pocket expense for us. The customer service is severely lacking here at this company. They also mentioned that if we purchased our tickets through a 3rd party site (Kayak) versus WestJet directly, that they couldn't help us. Seriously?? Additionally, we lost 2 days of travel and missed out on tours and taxis that were pre-booked. I will not be using WestJet again,
This airline would not refund my money and I had a physician note that I could not fly. They are crooks
Westjet was late and we missed our connecting flight with Cathay. Had to wait 8 hours. Westjet only allows 1 checked in baggage for international flights- it’s always been 2. Canada allows only 1 sandwhich bag size full off small liquids. Everything else will be tossed. Awful trip. Will never fly west jet or go to Toronto to connect flights!
No pre boarding kiosk to check in, baggage claim detected luggage didn’t leave the airport, poorly managed recovery of lost luggage, and blame lost tag from conveyor to TSA/security, very poor from TSA/security check to delivery, crucial if compensation will go thru and will likely wait for months unlike United,
Flight was good, crew was excellent. No complaints at all
Delayed 3 times in a row for 4 hours total. Incrementally pushing back the flight claiming gate delays but they eventually changed the actual plane, due to technical issues. This strategy to avoid compensation to passengers is unprofessional.
I didn't think about not having the right app for wifi because my connecting flight was with Westjet and when I took off from Seattle I was thinking I would use my wifi, but realized I couldn't on my Westjet app and I did not have Delta's app downloaded.
The flight attendants were amazing. But we checked in online and just needed to check our bags. The line was so long that it took over an hour to do this. There was only one person checking people in.
food worker strike caused lack of service. I know, not your fault but a bit of a inconvenience.
One small cup of warm soda for a 4 hour flight. Disinterested, unfriendly flight attendants
Flight was canceled due to mechanical issues. After a considerable wait in the queue, Air Canada customer service was very helpful to get us on another flight. I am disappointed to report our rescheduled flight is for three days from now. Three days of extra expenses and inconvenience is unacceptable.
extremely cramped seating... absolutely no leg room and when person in front of me reclined... I was pinned in my seat... absolutely ridiculous
Take off and landing and also the crew were excellent, just we could not received one of our suitcases at Ottawa at the same time we got there, but the associate at Ottawa airport were very nice and helpful so we could receive it on 16th of September.
They served us 1.5 pieces of chicken nuggets with coleslaw..felt like a toddlers meal in business class. Why bother?
It's hard to separate the frustration and stress of delays, which may or may not have been due to AC, in my experience. My Nashville/Toronto flight was delayed due to baggage loading, to the point I missed my connection to Ottawa. I was automatically booked on another flight but it was the latest one of the day getting me into Ottawa the next day. Linda, Customer Service desk in Toronto, got me on an earlier flight AND made the calls to get my baggage on the same flight. (High marks for Linda and her efforts! ) I ended up in Ottawa about 2 hours late, but my carryon bag which I volunteered to gate check to make it easier for AC, got the retractable handle tore off. Sorry, but it was a mixed bag experience for me. Linda was definitely the highlight of the trip.
We were over 3 hours late leaving Nashville. I am a new traveller, so it was very stressful not knowing if I'd miss by connecting flight to Victoria.
In Nashville Airport air Canada employees very unprofessional and that leads to a last one of our luggage.Will NOT recommend to fly with air Canada from Nashville. Jerry
Both my planes were delayed. I missed my flight in Toronto and got into Montreal at 4:00 instead of 1:15.
Crew were great. No snacks available. No entertainment. Seats a bit crammed.
