I'm based in Calgary. Fly Westjet alot but have yet to give the 787 a try. I am hoping VERY much for Westjet direct Calgary to Sydney or Brisbane. We have never had direct flights from here to Aus before. 🇨🇦🇦🇺🇨🇦🇦🇺
As the WestJet Account Manager in The UK I was delighted to see you review our new Dreamliner Business Class Pod. I'm so happy you enjoyed the flight and more importantly our friendly and professional WestJetters in the sky didn't let us down. They are fantastic and make my job so much easier.
I travelled for the first time on WestJet a couple of years ago. I used to usually fly Air Canada before but I've switched to WestJet now since my experience has been so great - the service is so much better than AC
Being a Canadian, it is great to see you like the WJ product. It is wonderful they service us out west with nonstop European service that avoids a stop in central Canada.
@@johnwellington5754 Thanks John. Yes I have experienced western AC polar routes also. More about appreciation for WJ, nice to have quality competition. WJ announced Asia from YYC!
Great video Dennis. The special note from the cabin manager is a very personal and professional touch and does make you feel special. It is all about service and being feel welcomed.
3:25 "I promise if I ever get to 100 thousand subscribers I'll stop asking" ;) Congrats though, well deserved and thanks for keeping up the great content this year despite the difficulties
Thanks for reviewing Westjet, Dennis. I really enjoy your reviews, although most of them don't apply when flying from Canada. Westjet is based in Calgary, where I live, and every time I fly with them, the service is great. I have been watching you for about 2 years now and can't understand why you haven't yet made 100,000 subscribers. You are the best of the flight reviewers on RUclips.
Dennis thanks for that shout out for our Canadian hospitality and glad you enjoyed West Jet's service. I'm flying them next month down to Trinidad. Love your videos and your laid back Aussie view of the world. Thanks for taking us along on your travels and wishing you happy landings.
I think the fact that you set out with a positive attitude Dennis means a lot. You look for the good things and seem to get the best from the crew due to this and when you do find stuff that you don’t like you report it objectively and realistically. I do exactly the same when I travel and almost consistently get good experience in return. Cheers.
Thank you for supporting WestJet my dear, I'm one of your loyal Canadian subscribers located in Calgary by the way... 😉😉😍😍 P.S. Love your humor in this video especially!!!
I have memories of flying WestJet in their early years when they flew old, leased 737's where each plane had a different livery, and the flight attendants and other staff made us all feel special. Glad to hear that even though they've gone uptown with bigger planes and long haul routes Westjet still puts the customer experience at the top (right behind safety.)
This is Colins Aerospace Super a diamond seat, which BA also uses as you mentioned. WestJet seems to know the passengers well. They knew you are RUclipsrs👍 What an impressive service! You convinced me to fly WestJet business class!! Cheers Dennis🥂
Just nothing to fault and everything to commend. I saw another comment that WestJet only started a BC this year. Just yet another example of how an LCC can teach the legacy airlines some lessons, and to come up with this new product 100% spot on the first time is a great achievement.
Somehow it seems like that WestJet is trying hard to lose its humble LCC roots and is trying to be one of the full service carriers. This all start some years ago when they migrated their Passenger Services System from Navitaire to Sabre Sonic and signed interline agreements with various carriers.
This is WS finally providing a decent alternative to Air Canada into a UK gateway airport. The hard product has some similarities to the AC biz cabin minus the crumbs stuck in the seat and general filth. The cabin crew seem friendly which is refreshing compared to the (usually) indifferent AC personnel. Very much worth considering for my next flight through Europe in February.
Another fantastic video Dennis. Every time I see your videos it makes me want to hurry up and book a holiday. Thank you for all your hard work through out the year. Merry Christmas and HAPPY New Year too you and all your family and subscribers. Stay safe
Always nice to catch an upload early. As usual, a fantastic review of what seems to be a fantastic product by Westjet. I always do enjoy how comprehensive and concise the reviews are, plus that little bit of 'being human' in the beginning when talking about your flight made me smile, we're all human and coffee does indeed help. I'll honestly consider Westjet after seeing this should I ever find myself on a journey that has them as a carrier for that route, cheers to another great flight review Dennis!
Hi Dennis - just another Canadian subscriber here, in Holland Landing, Ontario (less than an hour from YYZ, if the traffic is OK!). Nice work - I like the style of your videos!
Dennis, this review couldn’t have come at a better time, we have just booked Sydney to Vancouver with west jet business class and were nervous, but it was too good a price to miss, thanks for your review and wishing you and your family a merry Christmas and safe holiday period
Small little details is what I love about your channel, Dennis! The flight info in the description is great for people who are unfamiliar with a route. Keep up the good work and have a Merry Christmas!
@@MrAnniebaby Great to hear Ann. BTW, I travel to Australia every year in April or May for work and then travel around to see as much as I can and I've enjoyed Aussie hospitality as well!
Dennis, it was a pleasure meeting you at YYZ before this flight. Keep making great informative videos! We also enjoyed the flight in biz. Happy Holidays!
Lovely video Dennis. Looks as good if not better than some European airlines long haul products. I hope you and the rest of your family have a great Christmas and a safe new year
Great video as always, Dennis. I definitely would say that having the menu at the END of the video was a good idea like in your recent videos. Allows those interested to check it out and those of us who want to watch the rest of the video don't have to try and skip it!
That's a great looking cabin, especially for a night flight... great colours, and stylish table setting. The food looked great, I have to say. Thanks for sharing this video, Dennis. I think you will be at 100k before you know it! Cheers from NZ.
I think it’s safe to say from my self and the other 91,000 Subscribers raising their glass of bubbly, We simply say Cheers Dennis for all the great Videos and here’s to you and your family to have a safe and Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Love WestJet! Hardly an upstart airline, as it has been serving Canadians with a smile now for 22 years, but certainly a recent entrant into the transatlantic market (flying 737s since 2014) and Dreamliners since 2019. This is WestJet’s first year with business class and they are really trying to make it memorable. I recently travelled from Calgary to London Gatwick (return) in Premium Economy and the service was equally personable. WestJet is now definitely my preferred transatlantic carrier. My one disappointment with the Dreamliner is that, to accommodate all that headroom, the overhead bins are too high for me to reach!
Perhaps one of the disadvantages of becoming one of the better known aviation vlogers is that when crew recognise you, your flight experience may not be objective. Rather you’ve experienced extra effort to get good PR for the airline and crew. West jet have had positive reviews for this product from other popular vlogers. The crews seem to be consistently good, although, the “over exuberance” of the crew member you experienced kind of intimated you would have an above average flight...
time to expand the YYZ to other European gateways like CDG/Orly or FCO, booked GTW in Feb and thanks Dennis for reviewing both major Canadian carriers.
Hi Dennis I been watching your vlogs and I enjoyed it, but i just subscribed now. Enjoy your travel and keep on blogging. By the way , I am from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 and thank you for flying one Canada’s flight carrier. 😊
Great video Dennis as usual! In your opinion who has the best overall product between London and Canada, WestJet or Air Canada? Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Another great review. Many thanks and a big thumbs up and a Merry Christmas and happy and properous New Year to you, your family and loved ones. Cheers.

You need to look beyond London when saying you are the account manager for the UK. Why not fly into Mnachester, Birminghem, Newcastle or Glasgow?
That cabin manager loves Dennis's videos haha
For an airline that never had a business class product until this year, they have an excellent product
I travelled for the first time on WestJet a couple of years ago. I used to usually fly Air Canada before but I've switched to WestJet now since my experience has been so great - the service is so much better than AC
Being a Canadian, it is great to see you like the WJ product. It is wonderful they service us out west with nonstop European service that avoids a stop in central Canada.
AC has done it from YVR for over 30 years. LHR, ZRH, DUB, FRA and even CDG at some points
@@johnwellington5754 Thanks John. Yes I have experienced western AC polar routes also. More about appreciation for WJ, nice to have quality competition. WJ announced Asia from YYC!
Great video Dennis. The special note from the cabin manager is a very personal and professional touch and does make you feel special. It is all about service and being feel welcomed.
a proper greeting at the door and honest service goes alot further than a dumb note bud
@@chadmarkz4334 I disagree. But they did greet him properly at the door in either event.

@@renocuahmet2163 Westjet without a doubt.
@@sallytucker2354 Cool
Snoop Dogg Westjet of course!
Excellent review! As one of the few Canadian subscriber this just made me smile, really great to see Westjet's expansion going strong
Dennis thanks for that shout out for our Canadian hospitality and glad you enjoyed West Jet's service. I'm flying them next month down to Trinidad. Love your videos and your laid back Aussie view of the world. Thanks for taking us along on your travels and wishing you happy landings.
You had Perry Mah.. He's a westjet legend!!
The personalisation that they're doing is pretty awesome! And love the fact that the crew (or at least one of them) knows your channel!

Glad to hear that even though they've gone uptown with bigger planes and long haul routes Westjet still puts the customer experience at the top (right behind safety.)
I really get a lot out of your reviews I think they are factual, informative and “fair dinkum”. Keep up the good work.
How cute is that cabin manager? Totally fan-boying over Dennis. Can’t blame him.
This is Colins Aerospace Super a diamond seat, which BA also uses as you mentioned. WestJet seems to know the passengers well. They knew you are RUclipsrs👍 What an impressive service! You convinced me to fly WestJet business class!! Cheers Dennis🥂
Loved the staff warmth. It makes all the difference. Westjet thank you for your beautiful product!!

I’m Canadian and I love your videos. Taxi takeoff footage may be a little bit different or awkward but it is kind of a cool perspective
Thanks for another great video from one of your Canadian subscribers.
Excellent, straight to the point as usual. I am surpprised you have not hit the 100.000 yet ! So, keep at it !
Excellent video! YI really need to try this flight!
Glad to see you enjoyed the best Canadian airline.
Destination guidance on the IFE: nice touch.
Don't feel guilty about including calls to action, Dennis! It's OK to use best practices that help your channel grow, no one holds that against you!
Thanks mate
Really nice to see WS getting on. Very impressed with their upgrade and service... Very happy for you all.

WestJet is my favourite Canadian airline overall. They give great legroom in their economy seats. I have never been disappointed.

You won’t be on WestJet out of Sydney. Likely Qantas equipment in a codeshare. WestJet doesn’t fly to Australia.

"Canadians kick ass", It's on one of my favourite tee shirts...looks like it's true when it comes to West Jet, safe travels;-))

Great video! Always fly Air Canada because of J class, I think I'll have to give Westjet a try.

Taking this flight in March - thanks for the excellent preview. Keep up the great videos.
It’s always great to see a new Dennis upload
Loved this product looked absolutely wonderful. Great to see personal touches aswell 👍 highly impressed

Been hearing/seeing more about WestJet, business class product looks great!
I'm one of your favorite Canadian subscribers!!!! Keep it up Dennis!!
I wouldn't call westjet a low cost carrier with a product like that
In Canada it's pretty much the most costly but the Canadian dollar is low.
they have higher prices than the other airlines, the low cost days are long gone. WJ sucks.
