Thumbs up Westjet - 50% off one day sale

Got an email from Westjet saying they are having a 50% off one day sale.

The flights to the US aren't quite 50% off, from checking earlier in the week it is roughly about a 15 - 30% which still isn't that bad.

This is ridiculous! I've been waiting to book a flight to toronto for a month. I want to leave on the 21...Flights at the end of February are OUTRAGEOUS. Around $400 EACH WAY to T.O, no matter which airline I take. Now this sale comes along and it only covers up until the 13th. This is beyond frustrating.

Why are flights so much at the end of Feb?

Me too. Its very rare you see sales like this around Christmas time. They must not be selling as many seats as they anticipated.

Gah, me too. I wonder if it's some sort of trend.

It's kind of risky though, I remember two years ago they had a promotion that started early December that said any flights from Dec 14th-19th were 50% off. Of course I had booked my flight in October, and paid something like $300 for it and now all the flights were $175.

Not enough selection, always the way it works when you look into sales.

Turns out I have to go through Air Canada as much as I do not want to do that. Their "Tango" price is the exact same as WestJet's sale price and I'm not forced to do the 6 hour CGY-VAN-OTT flight.

Oh well.

hey thats ok, Dion
thought I would mention it.
the nice thing is, is that you get the same price as if you were to book through westjet online, but with this way, I get to make a few bucks.
just a thought if you want to help out the little guy.

The flights from Regina to Toronto this weekend don't appear to have gone sale...

It was worth a shot...

Well, now that I'm looking at it, I guess I did do the right thing since many of the flights around my booking days are either sold out or not on sale anyway. A little bit of mis-leading advertising there...

Do you need a promo code or something? Is this only for people who got the email?

I'm trying to book a flight from TO to Calgary and vice versa. My bro is coming home for the holidays and if I can get this for cheap, it'll be my christmas present to him
