The WestJet Vacations Travel Protection Plan (the “Plan”) must be purchased at the time of booking by all guests sharing a room accommodation and is non-refundable. Only applicable to new vacation packages and land-only bookings made after August 4, 2020, for travel after August 5, 2020, to destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean. Applicable to new vacation packages and land-only bookings made after September 12, 2021, for travel after September 13, 2021, to destinations in Canada and the United States. The Plan is not applicable to group bookings, Sandals, Beaches and Grand Pineapple Beach Resorts. Hurricanes and Tropical Storms: If a hurricane or tropical storm travel advisory is issued for a guest's origin or destination on their travel dates, a guest may change or cancel their reservation at any time before the first scheduled flight and no change or cancellation fee will be charged. For hurricane or tropical storm date changes, all travel must be completed within one year and the package value must be the same; if the value of the new package increases, the difference in price must be collected from the guest. For hurricane or tropical storm cancellations, the full value of your vacation package is refunded to WestJet dollars. WestJet dollars expire one year from the date of issuance. One-time Change Fee Waived: Changes to departure dates, destinations, room categories or occupancy can be made up until three (3) days before departure for destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean, and seven (7) days before departure for destinations in Canada and the United States, subject to hotel and flight availability; changes to the hotel are not permitted. If the change(s) results in an increase to the vacation package or land-only booking price, the difference in price must be collected from the guest; no refund is issued if the new price is lower than the original price, and for clarity, the balance is forfeited by the guest. More than one change can be completed within the same phone call for no change fee. One-time Free Name Change: Name changes can be made up until seven (7) days prior to departure. More than one name change can be completed within the same phone call for no fee. Cancellation Fee Waived: Cancellations will be accepted 25 days or more before departure on vacation packages, or before the first hotel's check-in on land-only bookings, and the booking price will be refunded back to the original form of payment . Cancellations made 24 - 21 days before departure on vacation packages, or before the first hotel's check-in on land-only bookings, will result in a 50% refund to original form of payment and 50% refund to WestJet dollars. Cancellations made 20 days to 24 hours before departure for destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean, and 20 days to seven (7) days before departure for destinations in Canada and the United States, will result in 100% refund to WestJet dollars; no refunds or WestJet dollar credits for bookings cancelled less than 24 hours before departure for destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean, or less than seven (7) days before departure for destinations in Canada and the United States. Car rentals, private transfers, excursions, theme park tickets and other attractions are non-refundable. In case of cancellation, WestJet dollars issued can only be applied towards a new vacation package after a 15-day waiting period. To change or cancel your vacation, please contact your travel agent.
