Pillow and blanket kit offers guests another choice
CALGARY, Nov. 27 /CNW/ - WestJet today announced the introduction of a
new pillow and blanket kit which, for a small fee, will provide guests with
another option to enrich their travel experience. Starting December 1, 2008,
pillow and blanket kits - complete with a travel pillow, fleece blanket and
convenient carry bag - will be available for purchase on all WestJet flights.
"Our latest addition to the buy-on-board (BOB) product lineup will be a
great comfort to many of our guests," said Bob Cummings, WestJet Executive
Vice-President of Guest Experience and Marketing. "We believe the pillow and
blanket combination will be particularly popular with guests travelling on our
medium and long haul flights who want to relax and catch up on some rest."
The ability to purchase a pillow and blanket kit will offer guests the
peace of mind that comes from knowing that both the pillow and blanket are
brand new, allergen-free, breathable and washable, and can be used over and
over again.
"We're thrilled that WestJet guests can now enjoy the same clean,
allergy-free comfort experience we've been providing households throughout
North America since 2006," said Mike Linn, CEO of CleanBrands. "As a partner
with WestJet, we have the opportunity to offer guests our high-quality
products at a very low cost, demonstrating the commitment to the customer for
which both our organizations are renowned."
The new blanket and pillow kit will cost $7 in flight. The kit also
includes a $5 coupon that can be used towards the purchase of a CleanBrands
product through their online website. Reusable blankets will still be
available on all WestJet flights for guests to use at no charge.
WestJet continues to offer high-value, all-inclusive fares providing
guests the opportunity to book their travel through the WestJet Sales Super
Centre, check two pieces of luggage, watch live seatback television and enjoy
snacks and non-alcoholic beverages - all at no extra charge. WestJet goes one
step further - guaranteeing not to overbook flights.
