> This was fully intentional; there wasn't any back-of-the-seat iPad for watching movies or anything, they straight up tell you to use your own device and watch Netflix.

Westjet has required you to use your own device for a long time now (10 years?), but they offer an app/website and streaming library that works for anyone who connects to the in-plane wifi, unrelated to actual access to the internet.

Interesting that they're telling you to use your own streaming app/account now. Did you still have to pay extra for internet access? Was the Westjet streaming app still available?



Nope, wifi was free. Well, have to sign up for WestJet rewards, so the price is your personal data and such. No WestJet streaming option, the information card in the backseat tells you to use your own Netflix account; yes, literally mentioning Netflix by name.
