“Cancel For Any Reason” product now available at WestJet

HTS' (Hopper Technology Solutions) “Cancel For Any Reason” ancillary product is now available on WestJet.com and the WestJet app.

Cancel For Any Reason allows guests to instantly cancel their flight up to 24 hours before departure and receive a refund percentage of their trip cost back to their original form of payment – “no questions asked,” reads a press release.

Upon booking with WestJet, guests may opt in for either an 80 or 100 per cent refund directly in the WestJet booking flow, allowing for seamless flexibility.

"We know travel plans can change, and we want guests to have the option to make those changes with total confidence, no matter the reason," said Jorge Rozo, WestJet deputy chief commercial officer and senior vice-president, revenue and distribution, in a press release.

"By integrating Cancel For Any Reason into our booking experience, we are equipping WestJet guests with a best-in-class product that removes the friction and uncertainty from travel planning."

HTS' Cancel for Any Reason product aims to give travellers better access to flexibility and control.

Cancel For Any Reason will be available for purchase at the time of booking on Econo and EconoFlex fares.

The fee for Cancel For Any Reason varies based on purchased fare, origin, destination, travel dates and number of guests on the booking.
