Buy before Westjet payday and then sell a few days later.
I bet people are doing that.
Just do that over and over a few months.
You will able to buy a new boat!!!
Westjet is a profitable company.
Try doing this technique, but is that legal????

Westjet load factor falls

Calgary-based WestJet Airlines said Tuesday its load factor — how full its planes were — in September fell by 2.2 percentage points to 75.5 per cent from the same time a year earlier.

The carrier reported passenger traffic was up about 8.8 per cent, but capacity grew even more, as it added more aircraft.

WestJet's passenger traffic grew by 8.8 per cent in September from the same month a year earlier, but capacity grew even more. Traffic, measured in the industry as revenue passenger miles, reached 1.17 billion.
The airline said its load factor was still above its historical average.
Seating capacity, measured by available seat miles, increased to 1.55 billion, an increase of 11.9 per cent from 1.38 billion in September 2009.
"Overall, we are pleased with both our September and third-quarter traffic results," CEO Gregg Saretsky said in a release.
"We continue to prudently expand our network, positioning us well for the future. We are also positive about the upward recovery we are experiencing."
