WestJet Cargo has announced the launch of its new Campus’Air service, aimed at providing affordable shipping solutions for students and university staff. This initiative expands WestJet Cargo’s range of services, specifically addressing the needs of the academic community and enhancing its comprehensive shipping options.
Campus’Air, which launched on 1st July, is part of WestJet Cargo’s ongoing commitment to community investment and supporting Canada’s future. Under the Campus’Air program, students and employees of select Canadian universities will benefit from a 50% discount on published freight rates for domestic shipments of personal effects. This significant discount makes the service accessible and economical, helping students and faculty 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, Executive Vice President of WestJet Cargo. “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 be eligible for the discount, individuals must be current students or employees of the participating universities. Obtaining a shipping quote is straightforward and can be done by contacting the cargo airline’s contact centre. Most shipments will arrive within 24 hours, subject to flight availability and connecting options.
Currently, the Campus’Air initiative applies only to domestic shipments. WestJet Cargo encourages students from universities not yet included to reach out for potential future participation.
