Agreed completely. I rarely (if ever) check a second bag; in fact this extra $20 will almost never bother me, and even if it did, it's $20. That's nothing, really; compare to the first and second check bag charges on US airlines - usually $25 and $35, each.

My only point was that Westjet advertised that this was part of their "care-antee" that made them stand out from Air Canada. Not so much anymore - AC seems to match everything (no phone reservation fee, free soft drinks, one free bag in North America, etc). So much for that ad campaign!
