WestJet Link passengers can check in online starting 24 hours before departure. Online check-in significantly reduces airport wait times and allows you to select seats in advance.
Online check-in steps:
- Visit www.westjet.com and log in with your booking reference and email address
- Review your flight details and passenger information for accuracy
- Select your seats (if not already assigned) and add any ancillary services
- Complete the check-in process and download or save your boarding pass
- Arrive at the airport at least 2 hours before domestic departure (3 hours for international)
Tip: Check in immediately when the 24-hour window opens for popular flights to secure preferred seat assignments.
Can I check in at the airport if I miss online check-in?
Yes, you can check in at airport counters or kiosks on the day of travel, though this may result in longer wait times and limited seat selection. Online check-in is recommended to avoid delays.
What should I bring to the airport?
Bring a valid government-issued ID (passport for international flights, driver's license for domestic) and your boarding pass. Have your confirmation number accessible in case of questions.
