This may be of benefit to only our Canadian members, but from this date forward (for now) Westjet is no longer charging travellers a fuel surcharge.
If you have already booked a flight, and not yet travelled, call 1-888-937-8538, with your booking confirmation #. They will refund all of your fuel surcharges, minus a $50. fee for each change . The refund is in the form of a Westjet credit that must be used within 1 year from date of issue.
For example my wife and I paid $184 fuel surcharge on Aug. 20th., for a return flight to Puerto Plata, Jan. 22nd. We received a credit, after change fees, of $75.00. Better than nothing as most airlines would not refund anything paid for before the announcement. Good luck.
