AC: Was-hkg $587 ai

Subject says it all... Found via ITA (i'm sure tfd or someone will steal)

WAS-YYZ-HKG-YYZ-WAS
$647 on ita, am able to replicate for $587 on justfly. A tad higher but still below $647 on several other OTAs.
Sample dates: Nov 26-Dec 1
wide open dates (May 1 to May 19, Aug 15 to Dec 11)

Yes it is AC, and I don't think this earns full mileage. But still very cheap. As I predicted in my email, TFD ripped this off

. Do they ever credit FT?

Yes, never skip the first leg. If you miss a leg, the airline will cancel your entire ticket.

Isn't that only for the YVR-HKG flight (10 seats abreast, 17" seat width, 31" seat pitch)?
I believe the YYZ-HKG flight has 9 seats abreast, 18.5" seat width, 32" seat pitch.

This is incorrect.

On YVR-HKG, AC fly the 777W-HD (the plane you mean, known as the "slave ship") which they use mainly on long-haul TATL and shorter TPAC routes of 6-12 hrs.

On YYZ-HKG, AC fly the 77L, which is the older and considerably less punishing layout they use for ultra-long-haul routes of 12-16 hrs.

This is the 77W-HD, with a 3-4-3 layout, 31" x 17" seats.

This is the 77L, with a 3-3-3- layout, 32" x 18.5" seats.
