We've documented 7 cabin configurations across 5 aircraft types that WestJet's fleet flies. 2 of those aircraft types have more than one cabin layout in service at once — a genuine version lottery, not a one-off. We document every version we've found, not just the newest.
6 of 7 are verified directly against WestJet's own published material; the rest are derived or provisional — see each config's own confidence badge. Built from 14 cited sources across the fleet, linked on each configuration's own page.
Across the fleet: the 737 MAX 8 (W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y or W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y, depending on the specific aircraft); the 737-700 (W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y); the 737-800 (W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y or W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y, depending on the specific aircraft); the 787-9 (J/W/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y); the Dash 8-400 (Q400) (W/W/Y/Y/Y).

- I flew a different layout to what you show — what do I do?
