Oh I wish! I have a kid coming in the beginning of Nov so there's no way the wife would let me take off now.

That's a great price for that weekend.

Meh, its about the same price as Westjet/Air Canada, without the hassle of paying for carry-on luggage/non alcoholic beverages or worrying about having to cancel. But I'm sure the crowd would be a blast!

With AC or WJ, It's about a grand to book now (with an early departure Friday) , and you can't even get a return Sunday night (I assume Sunday afternoon game).
So no... 'Regular' Airlines wouldn't work at all.

Regardless.. Tickets to the games will be the realky $$$$ part of that trip!

I already booked my tickets for the Wednesday to the Monday. It cost me about $50 more than this flight and tickets were about $200 US/ticket on Stubhub

Yeah. As long as you don't mind leaving during the 7th inning stretch on Sundays game.

My wife, myself and our kids flew jump on to Kelowna on Sept long weekend. It was nothing but a great experience. The CEO himself was personally greeting everyone and the flight attendants were all super friendly. At this point we would give them another shot. It is also a local company that is trying something different in the industry.

Tempted to do this , but not sure the tickets will be all that cheap for the ALDS

I got $586 on WJ and $700 on AC when I did dummy bookings this afternoon. So you must be talking about a different AC and WJ.

Prices change day to day. It was $980 best price on AC a couple days ago.
^ The cheapest AC flight that would take you into Toronto in time for a Friday night game is $447 and $296 return late Sunday. So $743

WJ seat sale is very good right now. $586 return

Seconded. I did Jump On for the Grey Cup last year and it was awesome. Would definitely recommend it.

Would love to do this trip, but the other half's parents are in town that weekend. Don't think I can get away with ducking out for some ball....

Keep in mind you are only getting the 1 game for this! The schedule is Thursday Game 1 and Friday Game 2 the Sunday game is in (making the assumption here) but Texas

Well, the games are officially on. Toronto is guaranteed to host the first two games of the first round.

Game One on Thursday. Game Two on Friday.


Cheapest game tickets on StubHub are $150 US each.
