Check out our WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard review for more details.
Rewards Rates
The WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard earns WestJet dollars for all purchases made on the card:
- 2% back in WestJet dollars for all purchases of WestJet flights or WestJet Vacations packages.
- 1.5% back in WestJet dollars for all other purchases.
Redeeming WestJet Dollars
The WestJet Rewards program offers members the ability to redeem WestJet dollars towards WestJet flights and WestJet Vacations packages. One WestJet dollar is equal to one Canadian dollar when redeemed for flights or vacation packages in the WestJet network.
To redeem WestJet dollars, sign in to your WestJet account when booking a flight, and you will have the option to redeem as much of your eligible WestJet dollar balance as possible, either up to the maximum base fare price or the maximum amount of WestJet dollars you currently have.
WestJet dollars can only be applied against the base fare cost, not towards any of the additional taxes and fees that make up the remainder of the ticket cost. They cannot be applied towards incidental fees such as checked baggage or seat selection fees.
Benefits
WestJet Companion Voucher
WestJet RBC World Elite cardholders are eligible to receive an annual companion voucher usable on WestJet flights.
The WestJet companion voucher will be deposited into your WestJet Rewards account shortly after credit card approval and every cardholder anniversary thereafter. Redeeming a WestJet companion voucher makes it possible to book a companion fare at a reduced rate when you pay full price for your own flight on the same itinerary.
The companion voucher can be redeemed for the following destinations with the respective fees depending on your WestJet fare class:
- Travel within Canada or the continental USA – $119 in fees for UltraBasic/Econo/EconoFlex or $219 for Premium/PremiumFlex fares (plus taxes, fees, charges, and other ATC)
- Travel to Hawaii, Mexico, or anywhere else in the WestJet network – $399 in fees for UltraBasic/Econo/EconoFlex or $499 for Premium/PremiumFlex fares (plus taxes, fees, charges, and other ATC)
Free First Checked Bag on WestJet Flights
The cardholder will receive one free checked bag for themselves and up to 8 guests on WestJet flights, provided they are all booked on the same itinerary. This makes the card a great way to save on WestJet baggage fees, especially if you booked a fare class that doesn’t include free checked baggage.
WestJet Status Lift Benefit
The WestJet RBC World Elite Mastercard offers a Status Lift benefit, in which cardholders will earn $500 in tier qualifying spend towards WestJet Rewards status for every $15,000 spent on the card in a calendar year, up to three times. If you want to learn more about what WestJet status can get you, check out our guide to WestJet Rewards status.
