Potential Labour Action at WestJet

Victoria International Airport (YYJ) is aware that both 72-hour strike notice and 72-hour lock-out notice have been issued as part of contract negotiations between WestJet and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), representing WestJet Cabin Crew across the country.

This means that WestJet service could be disrupted as of 12:01 a.m. Mountain time on Sunday, August 2, which is 11:01 p.m. Pacific time on Saturday, August 1.

While both parties continue to negotiate to reach an agreement at the table, YYJ is preparing for potential travel impacts should a work stoppage take place.

Passengers travelling with WestJet are advised to check the status of their flight through WestJet’s mobile app or at www.westjet.com before coming to the airport.

YYJ will continue to post the latest updates on our social channels as well as on www.yyj.ca.
