Hurricane/Tropical Storm Travel Protection Plan Policy
If a hurricane or tropical storm travel advisory is issued for your clients’ origin or destination on their travel dates, you may change or cancel their reservation at any time before the first scheduled flight and no change or cancellation fee will be charged.
For hurricane or tropical storm date changes, all travel must be completed within one year and the package value must be the same; if the value of the new package increases, the difference in price is applicable.
For hurricane or tropical storm cancellations, the full value of your client’s vacation package is refunded to WestJet dollars. WestJet dollars expire one year from the date of issuance.
