These folks are very price sensitive and really don't care much about the actual in-flight product - hence no need for business class or a real frequent flyer program.
Ahhh VBIT's they come out of the woodworks in the next few weeks during the holidays!
Westjet serves a purpose most definitely! They are also stronger out West with more flight offerings. Out east they sure can't compete with AC's 48 flights a days YUL-YYZ and 36 flights YOW-YYZ.
Watch the drinking and just make sure you wear a condom if you are drinking/sleeping with the enemy! You don't' know what you can catch! You may even wake up with a new westjet joke to open off a business meeting or share with a friend!
