Cheap flights to Canada if anyone is interested

Avatar

Hey guys,

For those of you heading to Canada next season, I just booked some really cheap flights with Air Canada.

I have flown to Canada many times and I have always had to pay over $1600, even with China Airlines.

We booked return tickets from Sydney to Vancouver, leaving Sydney on October 28 and returning at the end of April 2011. We paid $1244 AUD each, including taxes. We booked online at http://www.expedia.com.au

Please ntoe its a GUIDE only…..I tend to use http://www.luggagelimits.com then go the airline’s own website to confirm any additional details.

Hey,

Board or skis counts as one checked bag with Air Canada its NOT extra. Pretty sure about this but maybe call to chck… So if you are allowed 2 bags you can only have 1 bag and 1 board bag.

check the guide for more useful info http://www.rideonwhistler.com
