What type of 737 will I be flying on?

Hello all

I am flying Westjet for the first time in October and I am wondering what type of 737 I will be on, so I will know if it has TV's or not. The following flights will be mine:

WS300 October 22
WS525 October 28
WS659 October 28

Thanks in advance!

From where to where? Not sure any of us can answer that unless you give the origin and destination. Be rest assured if it's to Hawaii, it'll be on an -800 that will most likely have TVs but be forewarned that you will only receive the Canadian based satellite signal for about an hour out of Vancouver, but the pay per view movies will work since they are not reliant on the satellite system. Other than that, might be hard to tell which aircraft FOR SURE as things do change and keep in mind that as WJ is getting new aircraft almost monthly the TVs may not be installed on that tail.

Sorry about the lack of information;

The routes are the following:
YWG-YOW
YOW-YYZ
YYZ-YWG

I heard that Westjets -600's are flying YYC-YYZ as well as the eastern triangle routes, so I will probably have TV's on the flights from YWG-YOW and from YYZ-YWG, and will probably have the smaller -600 from YOW-YYZ, therefore with no TV's.

Thanks

You can pretty much count on 737-700s for the YWG-YOW and YYZ-YWG flights. YOW-YYZ is usually a -700 as well with a few exceptions.

I am also wondering, my mother is on flight 176, YYC-YYZ today and am wondering if it is being operated by a -600 or a -700.

According to Flightview, she's on a 600, and just about over Manitoba right now.
