I’m Canadian, and I grew up with WestJet I’m so proud of them for growing into the brand they are now and I am so excited where this aircraft will take them in the future!
I also like them a bit but when I went up north to Yellowknife we got delayed 2.5 days and lost our suitcases. But we got to Yellowknife on Christmas Eve and we got our suitcases back. 5/10 experience
JayJay Planes&Things at this point, based on their cabin interior, prices, and business model they really aren’t. They’re now trying to compete with air canada at about the same prices for the same product.
Not a LCC, in aviation they would considered a 'Value Carrier'. In terms of price they are on par with AC on most routes only plus or minus a few dollars. They're new business class product is priced similarly to most airlines crossing the Atlantic and the premium product on the 787, much like AC offering, is over priced. Nobody is going to pay $3k for premium economy when for a few hundred more they can be in business. Both AC and WS have pitched the price of their premium economy really badly, so much so that you can often find a business ticket cheaper than a premium economy ticket on the same flight. This conundrum originally seemed just to be the preserve of AC but now with the 787 WS have copied this aspect of their business. I like WS but I always feel they are trying to match AC but that's the wrong approach because AC are terrible to begin with.
Took this plane from Dublin to Calgary yesterday. Very impressed, not only by the jet and its interior, but the staff on board are so pleasant and the services were great.
Alex, you're a legend! I've literally been refreshing youtube every 10 minutes all day to find a video like this. Great video, I love you got closeups of all cabins to see legroom etc. Cheers!
Great video Alex. WestJet is gonna be fierce competition with their 787s. I also think that their business class seats with the drop down partition in the middle is much better then ours and will be appreciated by many travellers. Well done.
The legendary Westjet plus a Canadian airline, great job, Westjet if your reading this great job on the business classes very well designed. I hope to see you on the Westjet 787 Dreamliner :) Love you Westjet. Plus I take your airline everywhere we go on vacation. Good luck Westjet 😁
I've flown Air Canada's 787 business class multiple times. WestJet's appears to be identical except for the color choices. Frankly, so what; it's a fantastic business class pod.
I just booked Dreamliner row 14th and according to westjet online legend it suppose to be extra leg room but I do not see it in your video, all economy looks the same, is that right?
Thank you so much for this! I've been looking forward to seeing the finished product for these planes after all of the lead up and they certainly do not disappoint. I'm so happy for Westjet. I actually get the opportunity to travel on one of the new dreamliners in May while they're still on the domestic route, so pumped!
Stunning video Alex! I didn’t expect such a presentation, you made a wonderful video presentation of a wonderful plane and cabin. WestJet did it’s homework and saw you as a great videographer that you are!
What a stunning aircraft! You sure were lucky to tour this beauty! It'll be exciting to see these around more. Although it does bare a striking resemblance to Air Canada's 787 layout, which I enjoyed flying on back in 2016. Awesome video! Keep up the great work!
Was it open to the public or just for certain people/reporters/bloggers? A very nice looking airplane. Even economy looks like a decent amount of legroom, compared to other economy products available in the industry. Very nice video!
Yes, it is! To start we'll be flying YYC-YYZ then Gatwick (LGW) flights will start April 28th. ...also Paris (CDG) in May and Dublin (DUB) in June! Come fly with us!
is this in just certain areas or is it in the entire plane? If it is just in business or first class I would spring the extra cash just to fly in this type of comfort
yvr2002rtw I’ve also flown on AC’s 787 Max, Premium Economy, on that route. That was far superior to AC Rouge! But I really do want to give the WestJet Dreamliner a try. ✈️
Beautiful & very comfortable looking interior! Fantastic job, WestJet! If the price is competitively less than flying nonstop to Europe from Seattle, I’d consider connecting in Calgary to fly with WestJet’s 787’s! These beautiful birds were built just 7 miles from my house near Paine Field! You could add a flight from PAE - YYC... that would be a dream connection to Eastern Canada and Europe! 🇺🇸 😊 🇨🇦
Great presentation Alex, I like the voice over as compared to graphics. Hard to read and watch video sometimes. Just curious about the seat pitch, especially economy. Thank you
You should include more information on the technical aspects of the aircraft. Like engines, fuel burn, cabin pressure, etc. There was lots of dead space in your video where this kind of information could have been given.
Love the business class but the premium class is just too expensive for what they are offering. It seems like they've pegged themselves too much to AC. Over $3k in premium economy to DUB? No thanks.
That’s great but not everyone can afford first class or business class. I would love to be up there but I can only afford economy and that is expensive for me too.
Thanks again for joining us, Alex! Your video captures tail 901 so well. See you again soon.
Nice to see WestJet reaching out.
Very nice! WestJet has an impressive DreamLiner ! Love the layout of the business class cabin!
Please include a Calgary to Tokyo route with this model!
YVR to HND or NRT please
WestJet Can’t wait to try the biz class! Done the premium LONDON - TORONTO @ 767 and the service was fab 787 must be such a step up!
I’m Canadian, and I grew up with WestJet I’m so proud of them for growing into the brand they are now and I am so excited where this aircraft will take them in the future!
I'm Canadian to and grew also on westjet
I also like them a bit but when I went up north to Yellowknife we got delayed 2.5 days and lost our suitcases. But we got to Yellowknife on Christmas Eve and we got our suitcases back. 5/10 experience
Westjet is really upping their game. They should join Skyteam or Oneworld to increase their recognition. They aren’t a LCC anymore.
They are still a LCC

Well they are effectively a Skyteam carrier now anyway, even if not officially
My wife played a huge part in organizing this event, so I love this video so I can see the work she did!
Took this plane from Dublin to Calgary yesterday. Very impressed, not only by the jet and its interior, but the staff on board are so pleasant and the services were great.
Oh my gosh, that aircraft is outstandingly gorgeous!
I fly both WestJet and Air Canada regularly and am so happy to see this. I won't be forced to use air Canada as often now.
All I can say is"WOW". That's a dream flying to a dream♡
I wonder if I can get that plane to take me to Cuba from Halifax in May? It would be the most luxurious 4 hour flight♡
Alex, you're a legend! I've literally been refreshing youtube every 10 minutes all day to find a video like this. Great video, I love you got closeups of all cabins to see legroom etc. Cheers!
Can’t wait to fly on this in April!
Thank you WestJet.......
You're going to make a shed load of money with this product.
I'm looking forward to my own run this Summer.
Awesome........
Great video Alex. WestJet is gonna be fierce competition with their 787s. I also think that their business class seats with the drop down partition in the middle is much better then ours and will be appreciated by many travellers. Well done.
Thank you Alex for an amazing presentation of our future! We are beyond excited!
Flying to Barcelona on the red eye. Will they be offering breakfast and what choices do we get. Can’t wait for this flight.
The cabin design is simply spectacular.
The legendary Westjet plus a Canadian airline, great job, Westjet if your reading this great job on the business classes very well designed. I hope to see you on the Westjet 787 Dreamliner :) Love you Westjet. Plus I take your airline everywhere we go on vacation. Good luck Westjet 😁
This is how a plain review should be done thanks!
Absolutely AMAZING product. I am sure this airline will fly high and high with this incredible aircraft !
Such a nice and beautiful aircraft, will want fly it one day
The colours of the interior are fantastic. Well done WestJet and Alex for the great video!
I've flown Air Canada's 787 business class multiple times. WestJet's appears to be identical except for the color choices. Frankly, so what; it's a fantastic business class pod.
Ur comment is very contradicting
I have no clue what you’re referring to as contradictory.
Taking my family dublin-Calgary on the Dreamliner business this June; can’t wait!
Great video and nice job with the WestJet stuff. Cheers !
Can't wait to fly on this plane. Love WestJet!
Awesome ..🤗. Was wondering if this one would be doing any flights from Vancouver to Kona Hawaii in April?
Awesome tour! I'm sure the 787 will be a huge success for them!
Great video!
Sad it’s not coming to edmonton Calgary is lucky
Ahmed Ibrahim fellow edmontonian here and I’m just as dissapointed as you are 😐
Amazing as always! Cant wait to see the inflight review to come :) keep up the good work!
This plane is so good! That will be my favorite airplane!
Simply an amazing interior love the colors and the dark colored suites.
THANK YOU for sharing your experience with us ... very impressive indeed :)
Beautiful aircraft and very good review.
I just booked Dreamliner row 14th and according to westjet online legend it suppose to be extra leg room but I do not see it in your video, all economy looks the same, is that right?
Best video hope to you fly it and maybe I will will get the chance someday
Awesome video. Nice that WestJet recognized you to do this tour. Keep up the great work.
I just drove past KPAE, 2 more Westjet 787's are sitting at the delivery center!
Thank you so much for this! I've been looking forward to seeing the finished product for these planes after all of the lead up and they certainly do not disappoint. I'm so happy for Westjet. I actually get the opportunity to travel on one of the new dreamliners in May while they're still on the domestic route, so pumped!
How was it?
Stunning video Alex! I didn’t expect such a presentation, you made a wonderful video presentation of a wonderful plane and cabin. WestJet did it’s homework and saw you as a great videographer that you are!
Great job Alex!
Phenomenal video Alex! Thank You for presenting our new Dreamliner so well. #ProudWestJetter #Tail901
What a stunning aircraft! You sure were lucky to tour this beauty! It'll be exciting to see these around more. Although it does bare a striking resemblance to Air Canada's 787 layout, which I enjoyed flying on back in 2016.
Awesome video! Keep up the great work!
The Dreamliner is my favorite plane out of all Westjet planes
West jet has done a very nice job with this plane.
Nice interior cabin design and color.
Was it open to the public or just for certain people/reporters/bloggers? A very nice looking airplane. Even economy looks like a decent amount of legroom, compared to other economy products available in the industry. Very nice video!
Will you be on one of the inaugural flights? I’m flying out on the 20th! Cant wait to try their new business class product!
...Maybe ;)
ahhhh a beautiful aircraft for my favorite airline!
Economy seats have not changed. Since the age of air buses. Only thing that changed is added touchscreen panels for movies.
It's really beautiful! Wish they would fly her to San Diego.
Hello Alex,I aam Alex,and I am from Mexico,the sad thing is that I couldn´t see the Aeromexico Boeing 787-9 when it came to the fleet in 2016.
Good to hear how you sound man :)
Sad they won't fly it to Montreal😥
@@chadmarkz4334 Why would I?
Great video Alex. You're very lucky to be able to get a look at the 787-9 like that.
Those seats in coach look very hard cramped
Airbus planes are better, Seats are bigger
Really wish I could of seen it!!
Why did you not test/show the overhead luggage storage and the tray in economy?
See this video: ruclips.net/video/LzTrrDFmLDQ/видео.html
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Nice video. I guess you were in there prior to the hoards
Is this going to be flying to London Gatwick
Yes, it is! To start we'll be flying YYC-YYZ then Gatwick (LGW) flights will start April 28th. ...also Paris (CDG) in May and Dublin (DUB) in June! Come fly with us!
Beautiful business class cabin. 👍🏻
Must go on one of these.
I’m not a fan on 787 but wow looks absolutely stunning great video
Can I ask why?
I hope the in-flight service will match the beauty of the interior of this airline.
is this in just certain areas or is it in the entire plane? If it is just in business or first class I would spring the extra cash just to fly in this type of comfort
wonderful video cakepp , fly to bali please
Do you know if the Bulkhead seats in Economy have tvs in arm rests?
I’m looking forward to flying YYC - DUB in that plane! Might even splurge for business class!
Better than Air Canada's low cost division, Rouge!! Avoid Rouge at all costs and go with Westjet to DUB.
yvr2002rtw I’ve also flown on AC’s 787 Max, Premium Economy, on that route. That was far superior to AC Rouge! But I really do want to give the WestJet Dreamliner a try. ✈️
Beautiful & very comfortable looking interior! Fantastic job, WestJet!

You didn't try any of the seats? 😁
very nice
Amazing video and Review. Huge Like :)
Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner has 2 layouts. The one with 41 rows and another one with 57 rows. The one in your video has 41 rows?
Great presentation Alex, I like the voice over as compared to graphics. Hard to read and watch video sometimes. Just curious about the seat pitch, especially economy. Thank you
Hey, how come the products look so similar to Air Canada's B787?
Because Air Canada is the standard Westjet is trying to meet.
B/E Aerospace Super Diamond, the same seat design as Air Canada's executive pods
Well to be fair its the competition so obv they have to equalize it. AC standard with WJ service.
Nice
Dang this is gorgeous 😍
Looks great but the 3-3-3 layout in a 787 is human abuse on a long fligh. I know others do it as well but it takes the dream out of the Dreamliner.
You should include more information on the technical aspects of the aircraft. Like engines, fuel burn, cabin pressure, etc. There was lots of dead space in your video where this kind of information could have been given.
Love the business class but the premium class is just too expensive for what they are offering. It seems like they've pegged themselves too much to AC. Over $3k in premium economy to DUB? No thanks.
very nice aircraft. however, the colors of the seats look dull
That’s great but not everyone can afford first class or business class. I would love to be up there but I can only afford economy and that is expensive for me too.
I hope there is more room on seats.
Never flown WestJet but its nice to see domestic competition for AirCanada. AC has a poor reputation.
Westjet should join oneworld
Good give AC some competition
Wow...Alex actually talks!
Does anybody know the name of the background music? Sounds like funeral music, I love funeral music. Thanks.
I see Dasani. 😱
Seat 1K? The 787 has more seats then the A380 in all economy!?
Bad Ass Boeing rite there.
And there are grounded
When will they replace those old ass planes that have no screens and feel like the planes gonna fall out of the sky
The 737s actually had screens on the seats. But the WestJet app just made the screens obsolete
Come on why cant you make a trip report on a westjet 787
Maybe because there not in service yet?
Westjet must have something up their sleeve because Dublin, Paris and Barcelona are not ideal business class destinations.
Barcelona isn't getting the 789.
Super
More videos
is it made by canadian bombardier,,,should be
souris verte
No..... It’s made by Boeing that’s common sense
For planes built for 9 hour plus flights, there not much rom for us regular customers. Too bad
Orly Oliverio little heavy huh
Economy seats are regular airplane undersized. On an 8hr flight ... lol
Lol it looks pretty much the same as Air Canada's business class, still very nice though.
