If so, in any of these cases, you can make a claim. If your flight has been delayed for more than 3 hours with the airline, you are entitled to claim compensation between 250 and 600 euros with your flight claimant Reclamio. If your luggage has been damaged, you can make a claim at the airport using the relevant form.
What are you entitled to if your flight with WestJet is delayed?
In the event that the flight with WestJet is delayed by more than 2 hours, the company's ground staff must offer meal and drink tickets free of charge, depending on the waiting time required. In addition, the user is entitled to two telephone calls, fax messages or e-mails.
In the event that an overnight stay is necessary due to a flight delay of days instead of hours, the carrier WestJet must provide accommodation, daily allowances and travel to and from the airport from the place of accommodation. In addition, reimbursement and return flight.
How much compensation am I entitled to for the delay of WestJet?
If you are delayed on a WestJet flight, you are entitled to compensation, which is calculated according to the time of arrival at your destination. If you arrive at your destination 3 hours or more later than the scheduled time on a flight with the European airline, you are also entitled to claim financial compensation, except if the delay is due to extraordinary circumstances such as weather conditions. The amount of compensation will vary depending on the distance to the destination.
- Up to 1500 km, it is 250 euros.
- Between 1501 and 3500 km, it is 400 euros.
- If the distance exceeds 3500 km, then the amount to be claimed is 600 euros.
What should WestJet compensate for the delay becomes flight cancellation?
In the event of cancellation by the air carrier WestJet, a passenger must be compensated for a flight if less than 15 days' notice is given before the scheduled time of the flight. The only exception is if the cancellation is due to extraordinary circumstances that could not have been avoided (political instability, weather conditions incompatible with the performance of the flight, safety risks, unexpected flight safety deficiencies, airport congestion, air traffic management and strikes affecting the air carrier's operations).
The only way WestJet can do this is if the flight cancellation is carried out between two weeks and seven days before the scheduled departure time. In addition to that, WestJet must ensure that alternative transport is offered to allow for a departure no more than two hours before the original departure time of the flight. As this is a company problem and the passenger has been checked, it is up to WestJet to provide a solution, by law.
If the passenger is notified less than seven days before the scheduled departure time, in addition to not being provided with another flight, then the WestJet passenger can claim under similar conditions as for the delay. The criterion will be according to its extent for a higher or lower amount with respect to the cancelled flight.
Thus, if the cancellation has occurred on flights of less than 1,500 km, the cancellation claim should be EUR 250. For intra-Community flights, i.e. flights longer than 1,500 km, the amount will be up to 400 euros. For transoceanic flights, generally between 1,500 and 3,500 km, as well as other flights not included in the previous points, the amount will rise to 600 euros. Compensation is paid by bank transfer and should not be delayed for more than 21 days, in any case, if the claim is successful.

According to the provisions of EC Regulation 261/04, WestJet has to look for volunteers who can change the date or time of their flight in exchange for compensation and assistance. If not enough volunteers are found, passengers who cannot fly are entitled to compensation, assistance and reimbursement of the ticket or re-routing.

Once this first step has been taken, you will be given a Property Irregularity Report (PIR) at the arrivals desk. This can be used as a reference to check if there is indeed any new or updated information regarding the tracking of your lost, broken or damaged baggage.
How do I claim if my bag is lost with WestJet?
When you, as the affected consumer, have made the claim, please note that you will be asked to provide all copies you can provide of the original receipts for items that have been damaged, delayed or lost. Damaged items and original receipts must therefore be retained until the claim has been completed, until the claim is finalised.
In no case will a replacement baggage receipt be accepted in lieu of the original receipt for baggage that has been damaged, damaged or lost.
WestJet must arrange to send the baggage to the customer within 24 hours in case of loss. Under normal conditions, most baggage is located and delivered within 72 hours.
