RFP: 6 x YYC-HNL 22Dec - 01Jan

Hey -

I get to book a family vacation... Wondering if any TA's want to help me - send me an email which is in my profile.

(Also looking to use a 2for1 companion ticket for two of these flights, and one LON-HNL).

Thanks!

O
PS. Empress, what's the difference in fares between C and J for YYC-HNL?

You sure don't want to use Destina?

There's a very cheap C class fare to HNL. It's $923 pre-tax (7 days min/30 days max). J is over $3000. The C fare will force you on the nonstop flight (also with change fee) while the J fare will allow routing via YVR. There's also another C fare at around $2000 with 3 days min/30 days max.

Empress - How do I book that ASAP... The dates are only flexible +/- one or two days

All the YYC-HNL nonstop flight around Dec 22 is C0 though, so it'll be quite hard for you to get 6 C class at that cheap fare.

I haven't looked at schedules but would via YEG work for C class? Also, they are bound to change sched a million times before then so you may end up in "real J" via YVR in the end!

Are the discounted C fares available out of YVR? (At the worst, I'm looking for 2 C seats).

Appreciate the dialogue.

Actually before my eyes (and on the phone) with AC, all the nonstops from HNL-YYC/YEG (54, 56) are getting cancelled... AC removing capacity? (makes me wish I booked 2 months ago!)

I am checking... travelocity rules didn't seem to restrict to non-stop - the C30MN7RT fare is n/a from YVR, only CHAWAII for $1600+. Still looking.

Can't seem to get anything to price so likely they are pulling the fare and/or flights. You could try to call AC with the fare code (C30MN7RT) and see if they can do something (although you said you were on the phone with them so who knows).

AC doesn't have C30MN7RT loaded... Any other sites that have it?

(BTW, I'm finding lots of room YYC-OGG... Well, not lots, but enough]

Do you still need help with this booking?

Let me know the range of dates that you could go and I'll see what I can do for you.
