Affordable shipping solutions for Canadians
students and university staff
CALGARY, AB, July 9, 2024 /CNW/ - WestJet Cargo has
launched its new Campus'Air service, designed to provide students
and university staff with cost-effective shipping solutions for
their personal effects. This initiative broadens WestJet Cargo's
portfolio of services by specifically catering to the unique needs
of the academic community, further enhancing its comprehensive
shipping solutions.
Campus'Air is part of WestJet Cargo's ongoing commitment to
investing in the community and paving a brighter future for
Canada. Under the Campus'Air
program, students and employees of select Canadian universities
will receive a 50 per cent discount on published freight rates
applicable to domestic shipments of personal effects. This
significant discount ensures that the service remains accessible
and economical, helping students and faculty staff manage their
shipping needs with ease.
"At WestJet Cargo, we recognize the unique challenges faced by
students and university staff in transporting their personal
belongings," said Kirsten De Bruijn,
WestJet Cargo, Executive Vice President. "Campus'Air is our way of
supporting the academic community, providing them with an
affordable, reliable shipping solution that underscores our
commitment to fostering education and community development across
Canada."
To qualify for the Campus'Air discount, individuals must be
current students or employees of the participating universities.
Obtaining a shipping quote can be done by contacting the WestJet
Cargo contact center. Most shipments once processed will arrive at
their destination within 24 hours, subject to flight availability
and connecting options.
The Campus'Air initiative currently applies to domestic
shipments only. WestJet Cargo encourages students whose
universities are not currently featured to reach out for possible
future inclusion.
