About the WestJet Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner
The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner is the flagship of WestJet's widebody fleet, operating the airline's longest routes to destinations across Europe, including London Gatwick, Paris CDG, Edinburgh, Dublin, Rome, and Barcelona. With 320 seats across three cabins — Business, Premium Economy, and Economy — the 787-9 offers WestJet's most premium long-haul experience.
The Dreamliner is renowned for its passenger comfort innovations. Its cabin pressure is maintained at the equivalent of 6,000 feet (compared to 8,000 feet on older aircraft), which significantly reduces fatigue and jet lag. The aircraft's windows are 65% larger than those on comparable jets and feature electronic dimming instead of traditional pull-down shades. Advanced LED mood lighting adjusts throughout the flight to help passengers adapt to time zone changes.
WestJet took delivery of its first 787-9 Dreamliner in 2019 as part of its strategic shift toward becoming a global airline. The aircraft type has been central to the airline's expansion into transatlantic markets, competing directly with Air Canada on many European routes from Canadian gateways including Calgary, Toronto, and Vancouver.
