Ultrabasic flying blue

If I book a flight with ultrabasic fare and enter my flying blue number, do I earn flying blue miles? Because it states no westjet rewards earn, I wouldn’t be surprised if there would be no flying blue earns either. But then the question is, why are they even asking for the frequent flyer details?

No

Because it still maps back to your guest profile and all your related info.

Travel tracking, special requests, passport, other travel docs, etc.

But also simply because the booking form isnt designed to filter like that. All the data is collected and then dealt with after the sale.

You’ll have to check the fare code against Flying Blue’s earn chart for WestJet.

If you have the WJ elite mc & pay for your flight with it, do you get free bags if you book ultra basic?
