(FARE GONE) Delta loads mistake fare. US-Canada F same price as Y

Hi Everyone,
I booked this fare yesterday but wanted to wait 24 hours before posting to ensure my credit card gets charged.
It appears Delta made a boo-boo for flights from USA to Canada. All the F fares are the exact same price as the Coach fares.
Dates are wide open.. august, sept, oct, nov.

Here are some examples...

BELOW FARES ARE ONE WAY..
IAH-YHZ $289 all taxes in for First and $289 for Coach.

IAH-YUL $217 all taxes in for First

LAX-YYC $286 All taxes in for First.

LAX-YYZ $239 all taxes in for first.

I think you get the picture.

Mistake fare has been loaded since Yesterday when I booked two tickets. It can be booked on Delta's website.

I hope you guys get to make use of it!

Sorry for being selfish I just was afraid I'd get the ticket revoked if I spilled the beans too soon... I did however HINT at this mistake fare last night on this thread... but no-one paid attention, lol...

CRA - Bulkhead or Emergency Exit?

For cabin are you selecting "first"? if you leave it on Coach it won't show.

Try Oct 19th as a sample date, but it works every day in almost any month.

That was my fault, i wasn't clear on my post. I just changed it in bold to show these are one way quotes only.

Tons of stuff to every single Canadian destination Delta flies too. These are crazy low.

In that case I would hope for the flight to be oversold so I could be put in CX A class.
But, IMO that's not a MR.
And, with EXP upgrades on AA I won't even worry about sitting in Y unless I pick a routing like YVR-LAX-JFK on Sunday.
