In 2007, a seemingly ordinary WestJet flight from Vancouver to Kelowna became the starting point of a love story between two guests. Seventeen years later, this memorable flight served as the inspiration for a special surprise at the couple’s wedding.

When Amanda and Dustin, who first met on a WestJet flight, reached out to the airline for a unique touch at their wedding, WestJet enthusiastically took on the challenge. With a devised and personalized surprise to honour the couple’s journey together, Cabin Crew Member Christopher and Customer Service Agent, Lisa, made an unexpected appearance, gifting the newlyweds two round trip tickets to anywhere WestJet flies.

At the wedding reception, held at the UBC Boat House, the newlyweds were shocked to see two uniformed WestJet employees arrive with a gift in-hand. They delivered a creative wedding safety announcement in the style of an onboard safety demonstration exclaiming, “Welcome aboard WestJet wedding 2007, with service to forever. It’s our pleasure to welcome you to the second leg of Amanda and Dustin’s journey.”

The crew highlighted unique safety features of the reception including, “keeping dancing shoes securely fastened to help guests through the Macarena, the Chicken Dance, and YMCA.”  

The highlight of the surprise for Amanda and Dustin was two round-trip tickets to any destination WestJet flies, giving the couple a head start on the next chapter of their life together.

This heartfelt gesture by WestJet reflects the airline’s commitment to making special moments even more memorable for its guests. WestJet is proud to have been a part of Amanda and Dustin’s love story and looks forward to the adventures that lie ahead for the newlyweds.
