CALGARY, March 8 /CNW/ - WestJet announced today it is launching two new programs to reward travellers who fly with Canada's preferred airline.

The WestJet Credit Card Program offered in partnership with RBC and MasterCard, and the WestJet Frequent Guest Program will offer guests the opportunity to earn and accumulate WestJet dollars. Every WestJet dollar can be used as cash toward the purchase of any flight on any date to any destination - including seat sales. WestJet dollars can also be used towards WestJet Vacations packages (up to 500 WestJet dollars per person). There are no points, redemption grids, advance booking, blackouts or seat restrictions - just dollars off flights and vacation packages.

Sounds very innovative.

The first reward level starts with a $1,500 annual spend.

Hmmm...maybe it's not as attractive a program as I first thought.
