WestJet Encore reviews and complaints
Recent traveler stories about WestJet Encore flights, connections, baggage, schedule changes, and customer service.
Family seats were split after payment
We paid to keep our family together on WestJet Encore WS946 from LAX to MEX. At check-in, two of the 2 children were assigned several rows away. The airport team fixed one seat but not all of them, so another passenger had to trade. Families should not have to negotiate at the cabin door after paying for seats.
Clean cabin and a crew that noticed details
The cabin on WestJet Encore WS983 was clean, and the crew noticed small things without being asked. On Aug 5, 2026, a passenger near me was nervous during turbulence, and a flight attendant checked back twice with water and a quiet update. Nothing dramatic happened, which is exactly why the trip felt professional.
Could not reach anyone during a schedule change
WestJet Encore changed my departure from Singapore Changi by several hours. The email said I could choose alternatives online, but every option ended with an error. I waited 118 minutes on the phone and then the call dropped. By the time I reached an agent, the better connection was gone.
Wheelchair assistance was handled with care
My mother needed wheelchair assistance for WestJet Encore WS167. At Terminal 4, the escort arrived before boarding, stayed with us through security, and made sure the destination team at Frankfurt knew where to meet her. It made a difficult travel day feel manageable.
Seat fee was charged twice
I selected a standard aisle seat for WestJet Encore WS204 and saw two separate $152 charges on my card. The website showed only one seat purchase, so I had to send bank screenshots to prove the duplicate billing. The duplicate was corrected, but only after three messages.
App boarding pass disappeared at security
The mobile boarding pass for WestJet Encore WS241 loaded fine at home, then disappeared at Miami security on Aug 9, 2026. The kiosk printed a new one, but I had to leave the line and start over. The staff helped, but the app made a simple trip more stressful than it needed to be.
Helpful cabin crew on a long flight
Alex on WestJet Encore WS278 deserves credit. I had a tight deadline after landing and asked about the arrival gate. The crew could not promise anything, but they checked the latest gate information, helped me keep my laptop bag accessible, and gave clear updates before landing.
Delayed bag arrived damaged
The bag reached Paris Charles de Gaulle 4 days after I did, and one wheel was cracked. The airport desk told me to file online, the website asked for airport paperwork, and the airport desk had not given me that form. That loop made the baggage issue feel worse than the damage.
Counter staff fixed a name issue quickly
A middle initial was missing from my ticket, and I expected a long argument at Los Angeles. Instead, the WestJet Encore counter agent checked the passport, corrected the record, and explained what would show on the boarding pass. The whole issue took about ten minutes on May 3, 2026.
Overbooked flight created a messy evening
WestJet Encore asked for volunteers on WS389, then started calling names at the podium without making the order clear. We were traveling from MAD to DOH for a family event and spent nearly an hour unsure whether we still had seats. We did fly, but the communication was poor.
Short review: exactly what I needed
WestJet Encore WS426 boarded on time, left on time, and my checked bag arrived. The crew was polite without overdoing it. After several complicated trips this year, a normal flight felt like a win.
Voucher rules were not clear
I accepted a $215 travel voucher after a disruption, but the restrictions were not explained at the airport. Later I learned it could not be used on the itinerary I needed. WestJet Encore should explain voucher limits before passengers accept them under pressure.
Food service ran out too early
On the 21:45 departure, meal choices were gone before the cart reached the middle of the cabin. I understand supplies are limited, but WestJet Encore WS500 was not a short hop. The crew apologized, yet planning should be better on a longer sector.
Lounge desk was patient with a confused itinerary
My connection printed with the wrong terminal, and I walked to the WestJet Encore lounge desk for help. The agent at Terminal 2 looked up the itinerary, showed me the terminal change, and wrote the gate area on my boarding pass. Small gesture, big relief.
