Life happens, and WestJet provides travelers with options when plans change. The WestJet cancellation policy includes a 24-hour risk-free cancellation period, allowing passengers to cancel bookings for a full refund if departure is at least seven days away. Beyond that period, cancellation rules depend on the fare purchased. Basic fares are non-refundable, while Econo, Premium, and Business fares may allow cancellations with fees or credits toward future travel. Refundable fares offer the most flexibility, returning money directly to the original payment method. Understanding these policies helps travelers book confidently and adjust their trips without unnecessary stress.
