CALGARY, AB, and 15 Oct. 2025 /CNW/ – WestJet and TELUS, two of Canada’s most iconic and trusted brands, have linked their loyalty programs to offer unparalleled value and flexibility to their members. Starting today, WestJet Rewards and TELUS Privileges members who link their accounts will be able to earn, transfer and redeem points in both programs, gaining access to exclusive travel and connectivity benefits. They will also automatically receive WestJet seat selection vouchers and TELUS Connected Travel passports, allowing them to travel comfortably while staying connected.
Linked loyalty platforms allow members who link their accounts:
- accumulate WestJet points on their TELUS bills;
- redeem WestJet points for TELUS services and items from the TELUS Privileges catalog;
- to convert their TELUS Rewards points into WestJet points, giving them access to flights, vacation packages and much more via the new WestJet Rewards eShop.
As an added bonus, members who link their accounts before November 30, 2025 will automatically receive free entry into a contest to win an all-inclusive WestJet Vacation package for two to Mexico.
“Together, WestJet and TELUS are demonstrating what’s possible when Canadian companies come together to put members first — focusing on accessibility and improving the way Canadians earn, redeem and save,” said Steve McClelland, Vice-President, Loyalty and Strategic Partners at WestJet. “Whether it’s booking flights and vacations with WestJet, enhancing their TELUS services or staying connected on the go, this partnership allows Canadians to get even more value from their rewards every day. »
Both TELUS and WestJet launched refreshed versions of their rewards programs in 2025, redefining customer loyalty with increased member recognition and enhanced value. TELUS unveiled the most comprehensive transformation of TELUS Privileges since its creation, now engaging customers from coast to coast through a revolutionary tier-based system, which rewards customers based on the number of products and services they use, giving them access to enhanced statuses and exclusive benefits at each tier. WestJet announced the most significant enhancements in the history of WestJet Rewards since the program’s inception 15 years ago, making it easier than ever to earn and redeem points, while allowing members to save on flights, vacations or enhanced travel experiences.
“By combining TELUS’ leadership in connectivity with WestJet’s excellence in travel, we are providing our customers with increased value for their loyalty and creating an integrated ecosystem that rewards them in new and meaningful ways,” said Zainul Mawji, Executive Vice President and President, TELUS Consumer Solutions. “TELUS Rewards members can turn their everyday connectivity into memorable travel experiences, and WestJet Rewards members can redeem their points for TELUS services like innovative streaming packages, home automation products, internet, mobile phones and more. Together, we create an integrated experience that enriches the way our members live, work and explore. »
Currently, WestJet Rewards members can enjoy WestJet Wi-Fi, presented by TELUS, which offers high-speed Internet on more than 100 WestJet narrow-body aircraft, allowing guests to stream videos, work and stay connected. By the end of 2025, WestJet plans to equip its entire fleet of narrow-body aircraft with this fast and free Wi-Fi.
