WestJet is running two book-by-tonight offers on its Deals and Offers page: a 15 percent discount on select base fares with promo code 8B7N8AM, and a separate network-wide seat sale on wholly operated flights. Both must be booked by 11:59 p.m. Mountain Time on September 22, 2026.

Travelers comparing Canada, United States, sun, Europe, or Tokyo itineraries need to pick the right offer before that cutoff, then confirm the travel window and blackout dates in the booking path. Start with Deep Arrival’s airline booking guides if you are stacking this sale against other carriers on the same dates.

At a Glance
  • Book by: 11:59 p.m. MT on September 22, 2026, for both current WestJet web offers.
  • 15 percent code: 8B7N8AM on UltraBasic, Econo, and Premium base fares; travel September 28, 2026 to April 24, 2027.
  • Network sale: Wholly operated flights to all WestJet destinations; travel September 23, 2026 to July 31, 2027.
  • Metal rule: WestJet-operated flights only; codeshare and interline itineraries are excluded.
  • Stacking: The 15 percent code cannot be used with a companion voucher or a group-rate booking.

Code 8B7N8AM Takes 15 Percent Off Select Base Fares

WestJet’s deals page lists code 8B7N8AM as a 15 percent cut on select UltraBasic, Econo, and Premium base fares. Business and Flex products are not in that offer block. The 15 percent applies to the base fare only. Other air transportation charges, taxes, fees, and charges stay full price, so the checkout total will not drop by a clean 15 percent.

Travel under the code runs from September 28, 2026, through April 24, 2027. Seasonal start and end dates can still appear in the booking flow, so a date inside that window is not a match until the itinerary prices with the code applied. Canadian deal tracker Bargainmoose independently listed a matching 15 percent wholly operated offer on UltraBasic, Econo, and Premium fares with blackout dates, on its WestJet coupon page.

A Second Network Sale Runs on the Same Night

Below the promo-code block, WestJet is also advertising that every destination it flies is on sale. That second offer uses the same September 22, 2026, 11:59 p.m. MT booking deadline, but a different travel window: September 23, 2026, to July 31, 2027. Use it if you must fly before September 28, when the 15 percent code starts, or after April 24, 2027, when the code ends.

WestJet does not publish a second promo code for the network sale. Sale inventory is meant to appear when you search a wholly operated WestJet itinerary. The two offers do not stack. Deep Arrival covered WestJet’s earlier 20 percent Labour Day window, which ended September 8, in WestJet 20% Base Fare Discount Ends September 8.

Blackout Dates That Block Holidays and March Break

The 15 percent code carries a long blackout list. WestJet excludes November 11 to 16, 2026; December 17 to 24 and December 26 to 31, 2026; January 1 to 5, 2027; February 11 to 15, 20 to 21, and 26 to 28, 2027; March 5 to 7, 12 to 14, 19 to 21, and 25 to 29, 2027; and April 2 to 4, 2027.

Those dates line up with Canadian Thanksgiving week, the Christmas and New Year peak, Family Day and Presidents’ Day weekends, March break clusters, and the Easter weekend in early April. If your trip sits on one of those blocks, the 15 percent code will not price, even if you book tonight.

The network sale’s blackouts are shorter: December 17 to 31, 2026, and January 1 to 4, 2027. Late-December and New Year travel is the shared dead zone. A March 2027 school-break trip that fails the code may still be eligible for the network sale, because that sale does not list March blackouts.

Booking Steps Before the Mountain Time Cutoff

Mountain Time is two hours behind Eastern Time. 11:59 p.m. MT on September 22 is 1:59 a.m. Eastern on September 23. Travelers booking from Toronto, New York, or Florida have a later clock than Calgary, Edmonton, or Vancouver. Do not treat midnight Eastern as the end of the sale.

Search a WestJet-operated itinerary first, then enter 8B7N8AM on the fare that shows UltraBasic, Econo, or Premium. Confirm the discount line is the base fare, not the total. If the code is rejected, check whether the flight is a codeshare, a Flex or Business cabin, a companion-voucher booking, or a blackout date.

WestJet is telling callers that wait times are high and pointing people to self-serve tools. A phone agent is not required to apply a web promo code. Screenshot the priced itinerary, including the code and the base-fare line, before you pay. Inventory can disappear while the booking clock is still open.

Taxes, Codeshares and Companion Vouchers Stay Full Price

WestJet states the offer is valid on wholly operated flights to all destinations, with no codeshare or interline flights. A Calgary to Los Angeles flight on WestJet metal can qualify. A Canada to South Pacific trip that uses the new Fiji Airways codeshare, or any itinerary that puts you on another airline’s flight number, will not.

The code also cannot be used on a companion voucher booking or a group-rate booking. Bereavement fares cannot be combined with other promotions, sales, or discount codes. If you already hold a WestJet companion voucher, price the itinerary both ways: voucher without the 15 percent, and 15 percent without the voucher. Only one of those paths will clear.

WestJet’s deals page still promotes other programs that are not this sale: a WestJet Rewards points purchase offer through October 9, a free checked-bag perk for some bookings, and a credit-card welcome offer of up to 100,000 points. Those are separate products. Do not assume a bag perk or a points bonus is bundled with 8B7N8AM.

Calgary Hub Travelers and United States Connections

WestJet’s largest connecting bank is Calgary. Banff and ski itineraries that use YYC should price this sale against the same dates you would otherwise drive. Deep Arrival’s guide to the closest airport to Banff is the routing page for that choice. United States cities on WestJet metal fall under the all-destinations rule only when WestJet operates the flight. The code does not add routes; Tokyo nonstop from Calgary, listed as seven times weekly on the same deals page, is regular network flying, not a sale-only path.

Decision Matrix
If you… What to do
Can travel September 28, 2026 to April 24, 2027, off blackout dates Enter code 8B7N8AM on a WestJet-operated UltraBasic, Econo, or Premium fare before 11:59 p.m. MT on September 22.
Need to fly September 23 to 27, 2026 Skip the 15 percent code and search the network sale, which starts travel on September 23.
Are flying Christmas week or January 1 to 4, 2027 Expect both offers to fail; those dates are blacked out on the code and the network sale.
Hold a companion voucher or a group quote Price without the 15 percent code. WestJet bars stacking 8B7N8AM on those bookings.
Planning Impact

September 22, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. MT is the booking deadline. Both the 15 percent code and the network sale stop taking new bookings after that minute.

September 23, 2026 is the first travel date on the network sale. Use that offer if you must leave before the code’s September 28 start.

April 24, 2027 is the last travel date on the 15 percent code. Summer 2027 trips need the network sale, which runs through July 31, 2027, if sale inventory remains.
