To be fair, $523 is actually a pretty damn good price in the grand scheme of things!
That's probably the best price you'd find for a trip to London/Germany on one of the charters, never mind a trip to a Spanish island

Not a travel deal but good nonetheless for anyone taking trips to the US (or paying for flights in USD)
Canadian dollar rises to highest level in almost eight months: http://www.calgaryherald.com/Canadia...190/story.html

I don't know how I missed this thread!!!
Just curious.... the fantastic prices that were quoted for the Japan and the Spain flights...
are these return prices or one way? Do these prices include all taxes and all the other fees they ding you for when you buy an airline ticket these days?

All of the prices that I post will be return prices, including all taxes/fees, and I encourage everyone else to post the same way. There's no point in posting a $100 fare if there's $500 in taxes/fees

Don't worry I'm pretty sure CP'ers will be buying you enough booze the whole trip to make up for that 35 %

Haven't seen much in the past few days. It's getting into peak travel season so deals might be harder to come by. Everything is going to seem expensive now, compared to Spain

That's the cost of like 3 tickets to Spain! Seriously though, that Japan deal is amazing, anyone with the ability to go somewhere in June/July should take advantage.
June 17-24 is one example date for a 7 day trip. June 18-29 for an 11 day trip. 14-23 for a 9 day. Plenty of different date combos available!

Sorry HOOT, haven't seen any, but then again, I've never looked
Just did a quick search on FB, and don't really see anything.
If you need any help finding something just let me know. The best deal out of YVR is the Tokyo deal as well Actually the Edmonton/Calgary/Vancouver flights to Tokyo are the best deals from *any* airport in North America to any destination in the world, on a cost per mile basis.
