How WS Appears in a GDS PNR

When you see a segment line like this in a PNR, the airline code identifies WestJet:

2  WS 587 Y 15JUL 2*JFKLHR HK1  800A  2000P

The two-letter code WS at the start of the segment line is WestJet's IATA code — every flight segment operated by WestJet in a GDS PNR (Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo, or Worldspan) begins with this code, followed by the flight number.
