WestJet Premium Economy - Is it WORTH THE UPGRADE?

[@JoelleAnello]

I love a zone 1 boarding so much

Once you go zone 1 you can’t go back!

If you go a little further down past the bag drop there is a second check in area for premium economy and business class only.

[@allons.y]

Oh nice! I was doing carry on only that day so I didn’t go check but good to know for future reference 🙌

That egg strata is basically a crustless quiche. I would guess Air Canada's omelet breakfast is a bit better. The IFE: "too blurry and completely unresponsive" Lol too funny 😂 This was a thorough, informative and entertaining trip report, I really enjoyed it. Subscribed!

[@allons.y]

Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video! I also have a video on Air Canada where I show the omelet if you haven’t seen it already. I definitely agree with you that the Air Canada omelet was better than the crustless quiche🍳

Westjet actually had tv’s on the back of seats when they first started out.

[@allons.y]

Ohhhhh I didn’t know! After you mentioned it I went down the google rabbit hole and apparently they were tiny screens that had actual TV stations on them and you had to pay for the movies. The app based entertainment sounds better…..when it works of course. Thanks for letting me know. Was interesting to read about

What credit cards would give access to Airlines Lounge? do you any ? PO!

[@allons.y]

It depends on what country you’re from as every country has cards with different types of benefits. But generally any high end or more premium credit card like the American Express platinum would get you lounge access to many lounges across the world. Sometimes airlines have co-branded cards with credit issuers and sometimes those cards might get you lounge access as well

At the end of the video you said you would consider it as premium economy which it actually is and that’s how they promote those seats as well.

[@allons.y]

Yes I know that it is premium economy. When I said that I meant that in the context of comparing it to the cost of the Air Canada route. The Air Canada route cost is for business class but this one is premium economy so it’s not exactly a one to one comparison. I’ll try to be more clear next time because I could definitely see how the way I worded it was confusing

I got lucky enough to get upgraded on a max8 and it was my first experience. It was nice.... Very nice..... But worth it on a 2 hour flight? No.

[@allons.y]

Oh definitely not worth it for short flights for sure. Mine was 5 hours, so slightly longer, but even then it was a bit overkill. It is amazing when you get upgrade though 🙌

[@thatdailymama]

I feel like this is actually so bad for the prices they want. Not worth it

[@allons.y]

Thanks for watching and for your input. Definitely agree that there’s always room for improvement
