WestJet poised to reap benefits of 2009 investments
The four major investments made by WestJet during 2009 – new reservations systems for both its scheduled and non-scheduled businesses, a loyalty programme with credit card and partnerships with international carriers – have positioned the airline to support the planned 4-7% capacity growth expected in the next two years, according to CEO Gregg Saretsky, who spoke before the Ninth Annual CIBC Eastern Investors Conference on Thursday.
