Connecting in YYZ

Anyone have experience in connecting from WestJet to LY in YYZ? (YUL-YYZ-TLV)
Will luggage be transferred from the WestJet to the LY flight?
Can WestJet print my YYZ-TLV boarding pass in YUL?
Can I enter the lounge in YYZ with my LY boarding pass or do I need to get a voucher from the LY check in desks for this?

Tried emailing the LY Canadian office, got an automatic reply that they do not check emails..
I will try and ask LY customer services but have low expectations.

Is this one booking or 2 separate bookings? I dont think they have a codeshare agreement

I've done this exact routing. The answer is yes to all three of your questions.

The return is much more of a hassle to be honest (TLV-YYZ-YUL). Once you go through customs and collect your bags, you need to then go up to the WestJet check-in counters to drop it off again.

Also, YYZ is a mess right now and severely understaffed. I would avoid it as much as possible.

Agree on all points. I've done the YYZ LY-west jet connection (single ticket) many times, including a few months ago. I try to do carry on only, for reasons mentioned. When the LY flight arrived late, they got me on the next available flight (Halifax or Montreal).
Re chaos at YYZ, it's the same everywhere I've been in past 8 months, including TLV. Safe travels.

thank you! I am only flying YUL-YYZ-TLV and not back. Good to know I can stay airside. Tried to get an answer from LY with no success
