Hi Everyone,
Just logged on to the Cathay's Canada site today and found out that the fly higher promotion has returned. Improvement: you can select either the outbound or the inbound flight to be in F class. However, this offer is only limited to CX838/39 (daytime YVR flight) and CX828/829's A340 flight. This offer will last until 12/15/2000. The limitation is that you have to use a Canadian travel agents.
I am definitely flying CX from YYZ to HKG roundtrip this summer. I will be in YYZ for a few days before heading back to HK. I will take this opportunity. I will look for a travel agent at YYZ and the best of all is that I can earn 50,000 bonus miles extra for my AA account. (AA is having this promotion that allows CX F and J flyers to get 50,000 bonus miles on its YYZ flight, and 25,000 for YVR/LAX/SFO/JFK flight). This fly higher program look perfect...
Here is the press release!
