Westjet 787-9 Tripreport / LGW-YYC

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Today i’m coming home in Canada, so i had the choice between Air Canada and Westjet for this trip, i decided to go for Westjet because i never flew with them, and i was curious, normal, what to say? .

Tripreport, so there we are at gate 50 at EGKK , it’s 11am local time, there’s my ride for today, 3 years old 787-9 from WestJet, Canadian company ofc. Beautiful bird 🐦,

Few minutes after, we are boarding, today i’m flying premium economy, my seat is 14J for today, pillow and blanket are included:

We will talk about IFE later

The view i’m having with this big engine and BA 320 to PMI : stunning , it was a little cloudy today in London

After a delay of 17min , we are pushing back, taxiing, all i saw was two easyJet 320 , to Bari and to Athens and one BA 777-200ER to Antigua, after that we took off in rain:

During the climb and the first part of the flight we had 90 knts of headwind, WOW , there was strong turbulence over England!! But after all we said goodbye to Europe:

Somewhere between England and Groenland, the main meal was served, it’s was composed by an Omelet with crispy peace of chicken 🍗, a croissant with strawberry confiture, butter, a cup of coffee and some crema for the omlet and chicken. Taste so good but was so small, next meal was 6h after that one! I was hungry!

Entering Greenland:

After that i visit the IFE, it was really responsive a and fast, but there wasn’t so much choice, but all in all, was great, we had a route map ofc, with different view, AND one point where WestJet is better, the Wifi, wifi was available for only 28 CAD, for all the flight, around 30$ for Americans . It’s cheap and fast, best WiFi for Transatlantic flights!

I slept over Canada, no photo sorry

And 45 min before landing, the pre arrival snack:
Another croissant with Peach confiture, an chocolate cake and chips, good one for arrival, as i say i was hungry lmao .

And we landed very smoothly at YYC, 1pm Local time, we deboarded the plane and i went to the passport 🛂 control, and exit the airport, i was home:)

Overall: 8/10

What a cool flight with WestJet, cheap ticket around 390$ for an Transatlantic flight, fast system, WiFi, smily crew! But the meal is a bit disappointing because it’s so small!

See you soon for my West America coast trip:)
