  • Welcome to another trip report!
    On September 27, I flew WestJet from New York to Calgary in economy. WestJet Airlines Ltd. is a Canadian airline founded in 1996. It began as a low-cost alternative to the country's competing major airlines such as Air Canada & Canadian Airlines. WestJet provides scheduled and charter air service to more than 100 destinations in Canada, the United States, Europe, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. WestJet operates an all-Boeing mainline fleet with over 100 737s.
    This was quite an enjoyable flight, and I'd like to say that they are doing well in their transition from a low-cost carrier to a full-service carrier.
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    free snack box? nice! I actually have a similar experience - booked a YVR-PVR round trip a few years ago and ordered a salad for an onboard meal for the flight to Mexico because it was an early flight and nothing was open in an airport yet, but they also gave me the same salad shortly before landing back in Vancouver for free! generally a pretty good airline for what it's worth!

    In Canada, we don't have Visa debit. For debit purchases we have a separate network called Interac which is specific to Canadian financial institutions and on its own network. Standard credit cards will work fine anywhere though.

    A bit better than a bargain airline, though the ticket wasn't cheap. If they are moving toward a full-service line they may need to strengthen their food offerings for a 5-hour flight. Perhaps your generation is content with viewing a show or movie on your phone, I'd much prefer a larger screen.

    • @john40539
      @john40539 4 роки тому

      There are many ways to handle that other than paging everyone who used OLCI. They should be checking passports (or at least the presence of one) when they scan BP, even if biometric boarding is used. Since the manifest with passport numbers is sent to TSA and CBP for approval before departure, i'm shocked that they couldn't verify this like Ryanair does with EU passports and mobile BPs. Even if it just beeped for verification when BP is scanned at gate...

    i know in toronto going thru customs is very easy due to the kiosks to scan passports and questions asked to you on the kiosks rather than doing it through customs and border patrol personnel

    • @john40539
      @john40539 4 роки тому

      CBP has those same APC kiosks are every major US international airport, and many smaller ones. In some, you can even do it all on your phone without the kiosk. Only difference is that flights from Canada go through CBP before departure, and land as a domestic flight.

      @@michaelsharp3615 Just watched his video you refer to, or at least the one where he arrives at Vancouver (stunning airport btw!). Those kiosks are pretty similar to the ones CBP uses. Basically when you insert your passport, it takes a picture of the front, scans the MRZ barcode, and then uses that data to decrypt an NFC chip stored in the cover. From there your photo and fingerprints (sometimes, depends on issuing country) are digitally downloaded of the passport. The chip is encrypted and locked by the issuing country, and as such attempting to modify the data stored will corrupt the entire passport and flag it as fraudulent. From there, it uploads your bio-data into the system, and checks your entry/exit history, trusted traveler status, terrorist watchlists, and the Interpol alert system. Then a photo is taken and fingerprints are captured if you are a visitor or trusted traveler. These are checked and biometrically compared against the digital copies in your passport, visa records, and/or previous CBP/CBSA interactions (biometric exit, prior ESTA, B1/B2 visas, etc). Then it asks you declaration questions for customs, and prints out the receipt with your photo and wether you were flagged for additional screening. Then for additional security, non-trusted travelers have their passport visually inspected by an officer. This saves a lot of time because there is no need for the officers to stall and ask questions while these processes happen in the background. As such, there is a lot of time saved for travelers.
