Q&A
When is the earliest a work stoppage could occur?
The earliest a work stoppage could occur is Thursday, June 20 at 7:00 p.m. MDT.
Is WestJet reaccommodating guests who are disrupted?
Across WestJet, we are making every effort to reaccommodate disrupted guests.
When will you begin making additional flight cancellations?
As we await a response from the CIRB, we are working through a multitude of contingency plans. As the deadline of AMFA’s 72-hour strike notice approaches, we will make decisions as required to park aircraft in a measured, phased and safe approach, to ensure we manage our operations to the highest degree of safety. We will continue to communicate these changes with as much advance notice as possible.
