Thanks for the info. Nice price, but I am wondering how you got that price? My direct quote from AC almost doubles that.

Even Kayak shows 900+(unconfirmed availability yet)

I just went to the Air Canada site and typed in the departure and arrival airports for various dates (same day return). Air Canada gave me prices for various dates and I just selected the lowest price one that I saw.

I would suggest clearing all cookies from your web browser. I have found that some airline websites track your searches and raise prices on subsequent searches.

I did a search just now and prices for the 11th have disappeared. Prices for the week of the 18th are in the $1000 range. Sorry.

You may want to keep an eye out to see if AC lowers the prices again.

I forgot to mention weekends are preferred.

I should also mention that there were similar prices for tickets to Los Angeles so that is another option for you to look at.
