O M G.

This is my first ever catch of one of these fares! Booked 7th to 14th at $96 USD.

Would love to meet up with some folks from FT!

PM me to keep in touch.

I only see that this earns 100% EQM in UA and OZ - are there others?

If these are V class, they earn 50% status outside of spain, and a flat 125 status for flights intra-spain.

http://www.aeroplan.com/earn_miles/o...artner=Spanair

However, the same page says that for Spanair flights operated by another Star Alliance airline, check that airline's chart. These are op'ed by AC, so I wonder if I'll get 100% status.

Also received booking reference and ticket number, but my itinerary mysteriously says Calgary to Madrid instead of Calgary to Mahon. The flight details are all the way through to Mahon.

I booked one of these for Sept 26-28 for $173 on Orbz. I booked the first segment as an AC A fare otherwise you only earn 25% non-status Aeroplan miles for the YYC-YYZ-YYC segments. I don't plan to fly the last segment.

Too bad the fare is not upgradeable.

Now to find a cheap one way ticket to YYC. Anyone know of good hotel deals in Menorca?

THANKS OP!

Not exactly a "deal" but should you be into windsurfing or sailing, this is an excellent place: http://www.minorcasailing.com/

Otherwise Menorca (Minorca in English) is full of smaller and larger hotels catering mainly to European crowds. Not as bad as Mallorca, but I haven't been back for 15 years, so I couldn't say how it has evolved.

It doesn't appear to be, having checked expertflyer.

We're sorry, the price of this flight has changed from $96.00 to $2,008.00


Anyone still finding Bookable dates?
