New record for cheapest flight ever from Calgary to Hawaii? - $389 roundtrip after tax

I just posted an Air Canada promo code in the Promo Codes section of the forums that gives 15% off any Tango or Tango Plus flight.


For the promo code to be *really* useful, it needs to be used on a route where Air Canada is already the cheapest (No point in getting 15% off on a flight that's 20% more expensive).

Knowing that Westjet has been heavily discounting their June flights to Hawaii (as I reported last week), that's where I turned my attention (Westjet and Air Canada love to match each others fares).

So, I tried the promo code at https://www.AirCanada.com on a June 16 to June 23 flight from Calgary to Honolulu, Hawaii. (The promo code is CN7JV791 )

That brought the already very cheap Hawaii flight down to what has to be a record bottom price, $389 roundtrip after all taxes and fees.

Incredible, an Air Canada sale that really is a sale

Update: Westjet looks to have just matched the Air Canada sale. Today looks to be an amazing day for inter-Canada travel prices.
Westjet doesn't seem to have an official page up yet about their sale, they're probably scrambling to get their prices changed to match Air Canada.

Hi Chris, I have been following your blog for years. My girlfriend had spotted a deal the other day on teambuy and I just wanted your opinion if it is a good deal or not. The deal is 7 Day stay in Los Cabos I was thinking about staying at the Barcelo Los Cabos Palace Deluxe in a Junior Suite. From Sept 3 to Sept 10. Costing 1079 with taxes. Is it a good deal even during hurricane season? The link is below:

Yes, you can now be notified of YYC Deals by e-mail

I've had a fair number of requests over the last few months, especially from people that aren't on Facebook, asking if there was any way they could be notified by e-mail when I post a deal.
