WestJet Elevation Lounge

The WestJet Elevation Lounge is the flagship lounge for Canada's second-largest airline, reflecting WestJet's growing focus on premium travel. Located in Concourse B, the lounge combines contemporary design with locally inspired touches that celebrate Calgary and Western Canada. Guests can enjoy fresh food selections, locally sourced ingredients, handcrafted cocktails, premium coffee, and a wide range of comfortable seating areas. Unlike many airline lounges, the Elevation Lounge includes family-friendly spaces and a dedicated children's area, making it a popular option for both business and leisure travelers. Large windows provide views of aircraft operations while quieter sections offer space to work or relax before boarding.

Access at a Glance

The WestJet Elevation Lounge at YYC is located on Concourse B/C between Gates B31 and C39, past domestic and pre-cleared US security. It is the top-rated Priority Pass work lounge in Canada, uniquely offering wireless printing, personal power outlets at seating, and dedicated focus spaces. Access is granted for:

• WestJet Rewards Platinum and Elite members on same-day WestJet flights
