WestJet and Delta Airlines have expanded their frequent flyer agreement to now allow WestJet Rewards members to redeem for flights to select Delta Airlines destinations such as Paris, Tokyo, Rome, Madrid, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Sydney (Australia). Delta SkyMiles Members now now redeem for WestJet flights anywhere WestJet flies.
Members of both airlines' frequent flyer programs have been able to earn points when travelling on either airline, however, they could not redeem for travel on the other airline. The only exception being WestJet Rewards members who could redeem for a flight operated by Delta provided it was a WestJet-marketed codeshare.
"The ongoing partnership between WestJet and Delta brings substantial benefit to guests of both airlines," said Marshall Wilmot, WestJet Senior Vice-President, Marketing and Digital. "For the past three years, members have enjoyed earning WestJet dollars on Delta-operated flights and we are thrilled to now offer the ability to redeem WestJet dollars for Delta flights to some very exciting global destinations. We are equally excited to welcome Delta SkyMiles Members aboard and offer them the opportunity to earn and redeem miles for everywhere WestJet flies. WestJet is determined to make WestJet Rewards the most flexible and rewarding travel program in Canada, and today's announcement is a significant step towards delivering on that vision."
