Andris Pone, Coin Branding Inc. president, said WestJet might be missing an opportunity to differentiate the product in the minds of consumers.

“I’m not sure you want to leave it WestJet, because then there’s really no obvious demarcation between the mainline and the regional carrier,” he said.

There are ways you could do both, including calling the regional carrier something that elicits the WestJet brand but is “shorter and snappier.”
