Forums Payment cards American Express WestJet with AMEX Points?

    Hi all,

    We have future plans to travel to Calgary and as we live in Central Scotland the most convenient option would be going WestJet as they fly direct to Calgary from Edinburgh…

    I am sitting on a decent amount of MR points at the moment and was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to book WestJet with them, (perhaps converting through Delta or Flying Blue) and if so would it even would be worth the bother with the conversion rates etc. I am thinking a cash booking will probably be the easiest but wanted to explore all options so if anyone has any insight into this it would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Booked LHR to Calgary recently using Qantas points (transferred from AMEX MR 1:1) – was in economy as no business seats. From memory it was a good value with low taxes.

    As @Stephen suggests; Transfer to Qantas Frequent Flyer, then book WestJet (if availability exists)

    What class of travel? Economy redemptions are available but Business is vanishingly rare.
