New Conditions for RBC Westjet CC

[tgropp]

I just got a notice today that the annual fee for the RBC WestJet CC will be increasing from $119 to $139. If you do not use the companion flight you will now only get 2 lounge passes from the previous Four passes. You also must spend $5,000/year to be eligible for a companion flight. RBC is tightening the rules

This seems to explain the old and new

It’s still worth it to me for the free checked bag.

I gave up on WestJet when they pulled out of London. It was nice to travel to/from home, even if it meant that gawd awful walk in Terminal 3. I loved the companion fare and used it regularly.

They are giving me more and more reasons not to fly with them. Will probably still keep the card for now, but I already decided this year to only use them as a last resort. Had 3 trips this year, all with Delta.
