The most luxurious meal isn’t a dinner, it’s a three-hour lunch followed by a nap.

Hi @WestJet

We need to talk.

I'm not sure what's going on with you, but you're slipping hard.

My wife and I paid for premium seats in both directions on our flights (one from YEG to YHZ the other from YYZ to YEG), and in both cases at the last minute our jets were swapped out for former Swoop aircraft with no leg room, no premium seats, no in-flight entertainment (in one direction, the other only because it was an ancient WestJet interior and still had WiFi) and barely any of the other perks we paid for.

I booked these seats so my wife and I would travel comfortably for our relatively long flights (5+ hours and 4+ hours respectively). I paid for an extra night hotel specifically so I could fly premium and treat my wife to an improved experience. Other personal costs have been incurred for me that I was happy to pay, just to have the premium experience. I have been a customer for over 20 years and have flown with you to the near complete exclusion of other Airlines during that time. I have advocated others to use you for both business and pleasure. I have been an RBC Westjet World Elite customer for years as well.

I've waited on hold twice for an hour each time and never managed to speak to a human being. The credit you told me to apply for two weeks ago because of this inconvenience the first time? Still not processed. (This should be AUTOMATIC, and the customer should not have to lift a finger unless they feel the credit isn't sufficient). Now I need to file another one for today. If I wanted a ULCC experience, I would have booked one.

Oh yeah, and my flight was delayed to boot.

Your only saving grace is that your flight attendants continue to deliver exemplary service (shoutout to the Service Lead, Victor on the YYZ-YEG flight today) making the best of a not ideal situation. The bulk of the Premium customers on my flight were not happy with the situation including of the other premium customers on that flight told me he'd been waiting 43 days for a credit for a similar downgrade from a previous flight. Does that really seem acceptable?

I rarely publicize my frustrations, however you have broken my trust, and that is not easily regained, also you are impossible to get ahold of. Needless to say after this trip I am seriously considering canceling my @RBC @Westjet Mastercard and ceasing to use WestJet for both business and personal travel. I get that profit is the only interest of your company now, but it's hard to make a profit without customers. I am far from the only person who has experienced this recently.

How the once mighty have fallen.

I find it odd that the Forks has a firework free celebration because fireworks scare animals, yet Assiniboine Park has a very long and loud fireworks show right next to the zoo…

@macypeters There is no better company, than the company of ones' self!

@M_So Fake it till you make it, and act like you own it. (Yes, easy to say) Dining out alone is honestly a periodic pleasure once you do it a few times. Books & phones are ok, but it can also be just as fun to people/street watch if you find the right venue.

[Donald Joyce @the1donj]

@IrishofManitoba And how many more were 2 minutes late for dinner because there was someone crossing the street!

[Donald Joyce @the1donj]

@MamaCutsworth Crazy idea to think a solution which works well in Toronto, Vancouver, NewYork, London, and Tokyo would ever work in a city as populous as Winnipeg. Portage and Main is busy, but people here need to understand that our "traffic" is a joke compared to most metropolis'.

@JMKilgour It's the only reality TV I watch, but such a guilty pleasure.

Anyone out in the twitterverse get hit by a car at Watt and Talbot this afternoon (January 11,2023)? Someone got the plate of the vehicle that hit and subsequently ran away from you before you got their information! Please retweet folks!

[Donald Joyce @the1donj]

@JMKilgour As a user of the app, it is convenient checking in rotating taps when you either forget what the server told you, or couldn't understand what came out of their mouth.
It would be unlikely to drive my traffic to any site.

@keaneddie @Super70sSports The show with so many laughs, all of which you should probably be crying about. So good!

@Hockeybabe3 @ShelleyACook Was about to add the same comment!

[Donald Joyce @the1donj]

@SleepyOwlBread This makes me so happy! Great to hear you are back!!

Walk the dog, then check out this Heritage Minute.

@altonbrown Step out of the shower, you obviously need another drink. (And any broken glass should have been contained by shower curtain)

All the streaming music services draw from the same universal library of tracks. If that's the case, what factor determines which streamer you go with? (Pls retweet so we can get a good sample size.)
