[Maritime Q-Scout]

This is a bit of a long shot but thought the CP Braintrust might come through.

We've experienced a death in the family. My father's cousin (my first cousin once removed) passed away suddenly last week.

We were somewhat close, he and my dad were very close.

Trying to figure out how to get from Sydney (YQY) to ideally London (YXU) or alternatively Pearson (YYZ).

The funeral is Tuesday so ideally up Monday October 1 and return Wednesday October 3.

Airfare looks to be running us $1,700 for both of us, which just isn't in the cards. Aeroplan availability is non-existent unless we redeem business class which my folks don't have enough points for.

Anyone good at finding the uber last minute deals (which I don't think exist) or a wiz with Aeroplan?

Again I think we're stuck here but I'm trying for dad.
