Damn, I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and hope I don't get the same email then.

Ouch that really sucks.

I was wondering if that might happen when I was pricing stuff out on the All Nippon Airways site yesterday and not getting anywhere near the super cheap rates.

Hopefully it's just a handful of tickets that were cancelled at the very bottom of the price drop, and not everyone who booked this week when it was under $700-$800 a person.

If I literally hadn't just returned from a UK trip a week ago, I probably would have. Though with the potential for cancellations happening, perhaps better that I hadn't.

Crazy. I was about to book a flight yesterday, but it had already gone up by then. I was kicking myself all day today...

It's in the 800s at the moment, which doesnt seem that bad either. Is that still a fairly good deal, or do people think it will drop a bit again (even if not to crazy glitchy levels)?

800 is still really decent.

Yup, got my April 2017 flight cancelled yesterday as well. Booked it through FlightHub.com. Was told that the 45 min stopover in YVR was too short. Asked to book an earlier YYC departure so we have ample time for the stopover, but the price tripled to $1500. Lame excuses and would not honor our original deal.

I purchased off the ANA website YYC-YVR-HND for $680 CAD all in a few days ago - price has more than doubled now for the dates I had picked - still some good fares out there - I would think any fare bought directly from ANA would be honored

I've been going pretty frequently over the past 8 years. Anything under $1000 is pretty decent. Anything under $900 is excellent. I'm going in the fall, and that ticket cost me around $900. Usually I pay around $1100. All these ticket prices are with AC.

Apparently the airfare was a mistake, it was a loading error. I found it very odd that the fare ex YYC was cheaper than the fare ex YVR. So hence why it was pulled. Anyone lucky enough to have booked the $557 when they had the chance got the deal of the century.

This isn't the deal of the century. A few years ago cmyden had YYC-NRT for $2xx.

Didn't see that post, I only saw the same $557 on cmyden's thread which is the same fare being discussed in this thread.

No no. The deal of the century was the $97 trip to Spain a few years ago that Chris posted and many CPers took advantage of.

Also, if you don't think that $557 roundtrip incl tax to fly YYC-HND isn't the 'deal of the century', then you've been drinking too much sake...

$97 to Spain?

And I used to brag about paying $3 to fly to Vancouver. Jeebus.

Damn, that sucks that they are getting cancelled now. I was about to book for 4 to go too, but the "error" was over by then.

24 hours in vegas with hotel for 32 bucks was a pretty solid one as well. I wish these deals would come back!
