Airline highest ranked among transportation
companies in Gustavson School of Business Brand Trust Index
CALGARY, Oct. 28, 2016 /CNW/ - WestJet is Canada's most trusted airline according to the
Gustavson School of Business at the University
of Victoria's Brand Trust Index. The results are based on a
survey of more than 6,000 Canadians across 276 brands.
"To be seen as the most trusted airline in Canada speaks to the heart of what a caring
airline should be known for," commented Gregg Saretsky, WestJet President and CEO. "The
more than 20 million guests who book and fly with us each year do
so with the confidence that we'll take care of them and I'm pleased
that the efforts of our WestJetters are recognized."
The Gustavson Brand Trust Index was established to raise
awareness of the role trust plays in the minds of consumers when
making purchase decisions and measures the relationships between
social equity, trust, and advocacy for brands in Canada. The initiative highlights Gustavson's
goal of educating and championing responsible leadership, part of
the vital impact that drives UVic's sense of purpose as a leading
teaching and research hub.
