The verdict

What we like

  • Free checked bag for cardholder and up to 8 guests on WestJet flights
  • Strong travel insurance coverage (medical, trip interruption, baggage, rental car)
  • Annual companion voucher that can significantly reduce travel costs

Worth noting

  • Companion voucher requires annual minimum spend of $5,000 to maintain
  • Best value is limited to WestJet ecosystem (lower flexibility outside airline travel)
  • Some benefits require WestJet-marketed bookings (not third-party travel sites)
  • Value depends heavily on frequent WestJet travel usage
