About WestJet (from Wikipedia):
WestJet Airlines Ltd. is a Canadian airline headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, near Calgary International Airport. It is the second-largest airline based in Canada, behind Air Canada, operating an average of 777 flights and carrying more than 66,130 passengers per day. In 2018, WestJet carried 25.49 million passengers, making it the ninth-largest airline in North America by passengers carried.
WestJet was founded in 1994 and began operations in 1996. It began as a low-cost alternative to the country's competing major airlines.
About the Boeing 787 Dreamliner (from Wikipedia):
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an American wide-body jet airliner developed and manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. After dropping its unconventional Sonic Cruiser project, Boeing announced the conventional 7E7 on January 29, 2003, which focused largely on efficiency. The program was launched on April 26, 2004, with an order for 50 aircraft from All Nippon Airways (ANA), targeting a 2008 introduction.
On July 8, 2007, a prototype 787 was rolled out without major operating systems, and then the aircraft experienced multiple delays until its maiden flight on December 15, 2009.

Thanks! not many people show the flight coming back, great to see
Glad you like it😊👍
The train in the beginning is a through service from the Asakusa Line to the Keisei Main Line to Narita Airport.
Interesting choice, most others use SKYLINER, Airport Limousine, or Narita Express.
The flight review itself is useful for Canadians looking for options outside expensive Japanese mainline carriers
Thank you for commenting. It was just the option Google Maps showed me from our hotel in Narita to the airport... But yeah sometimes I shouldn't really trust Google Maps that much😂😅 My reason for choosing Westjet was because it was an affordable way to travel from Asia to Canada without haveing to go through the US. Thank you and safe travels!🙏😊
Excellent travel report. Very informative video showing all aspects of your WestJet transpacific flight experience.
Thank you!😊👍
I Havent Experience Westjet Yet.Great Trip Report
Thank you🙏 Glad you're enjoying my videos!😊
This seems like an outlier, Westjet's service is usually spot on and something must have went wrong, hope you have a good flight next time!
Thanks!
“Spirit” of Canada💀
Favourite airline in Canada
compared to Air Canada - absolutely
My sis is taking the flight from Calgary to Narita.... I don't envy her.
😂😂😅
What If Westjet will also fly to Manila And Cebu Using 787?
Technically that would be possible I think as it is within the reach of the 787 (not an expert). I think there is also a demand. But currently the only destinations of Westjet in Asia are Incheon and Narita.
Thanks for posting this. I live a few hours north of Calgary so wondered how much better the flight from there to Tokyo would be as opposed to Vancouver. Westjet originally started out as a discount airline and they were trained to be upbeat and positive so I'm a bit surprised about the lack of friendliness and junk attitude of those flight attendants, however I would hope for all our sake that isn't the norm now. Safe stay and travels in the future bro.
Hey! Glad you enjoyed my video! I was surprised about the attitude aswell... Maybe on the next flight it will be better :)
WestJet doesn’t overbook.
Okay👍
Hey I’m Japanese I’ll be utilizing westjet from Tokyo to Calgary too. I have a question. Did u pay or prepay for checked luggage?
If I remember correctly I prepaid for the luggage
From official website of westjet? I’ve purchased ticket which included japan airline and westjet. But I reckon there’s no section to pay for it
@@user-rv2yj5zh4z I recommend to check the baggage allowance for your booking again. Probably you can add luggage after you made the payment under manage my booking
Fun fact. The crew are not supposed to help with the stowage of cabin baggage for safety reasons.
Ohh really? I didn't know. Why is that?
@@theRealJohnnyG. the cabin baggage may fall onto them which in turn can cause injuries which means they will not be able to perform their duty efficiently.
@@ridhwansjg668 Wow okay that does make sense. Wasn't aware of that, thank you!😊
@@theRealJohnnyG. you also aren’t supposed to be filming the crew without their permission.
@@jessf2660 oh okay
Do you recommend it?
If you're looking for an affordable way to go from Asia to Canada without having to go through the US: yes. Otherwise not really to be honest.
@@theRealJohnnyG. I agree. It does not look amazing. In fact, the legroom seems to be quite limited and the food look horrible. But it might be ok to pay $1000 less than with AC.
@@missj.4760 Yes, and also it is a great opportunity to avoid visa hassle for those requiring a US transit visa. Because usually direct flights to Canada (with AC or Asian carriers) are a lot more expensive than US-transit flights.
@@theRealJohnnyG.Nowadays, flights thought the US are as expensive if not more. But yes, since Septembre 2001,traveling trough the US is a hassle, even for those like me who dont need a visa. And their airlines are not good. I just don't understand why the fare of flights to Japan have almost doubled since the pandémie.
It’s great that Canada has additional carriers to Japan, but it seems WestJet doesn't provide a pleasant flight experience.
Yes, I agree. Considering the low fare it was okay but it's certainly not the service you will get on some other carriers.
WestJet doesn't fly to Vancouver from Tokyo. JAL and Air Canada do from NRT and All Nippon Airways from HND
Also I'd always thought of WestJet having nice crews, hopefully your experience was a one-off
@@gabea6460 That's right. I thought it is flight WS5901 that flies from Natita to Vancouver. But actually it's a codeshare with JAL.
Nice video, but the crew cant help put baggage up, they only get paid when the flight departs and they can risk injuring themselves prior to departure.
Thank you. A few people pointed that out to me now. Staff not getting paid before departure is something I really can't understand, hopefully they will change that in the future. I'll even be happy to pay a few bucks more so that they don't have to work for free on the ground, that's just wrong. But I am not sure wether not helping with the bags is only a Canadian / US thing. In many of my other videos I recorded on European and Asian carriers the crew helps the passengers with their hand luggage.
@@theRealJohnnyG.completely agree, ive also been on westjet and compared to competing carriers their service could be better, but for you keep up the great content😊
@@Argovation Thanks!🙏 I will
If you got the wrong meal, why not say so?
She realized it when the crew was already serving the next rows. And it's not like that she's allergic to anything in it so we just eat what we are being served (most times at least)😂
if you think air canada would be better, as a canadian, trust me its not.
Yep, found that out as well hahahha
Calgary isn't called Calgary anymore it is now known a calgaryehdesh
🙄
I was looking for a valorant skin list not an airplane
