No cheap flights yet, but I will either use points, or wait for the sales to start.

These will earn 50% non-status on the YYC-YYZ leg, and 100% status from YYZ-MAD. Then a flat 250 status for the MAD-MAH return.

All these are E4:

Jun 11 JK9858 YYC-YYZ
Jun 11 JK9852 YYZ-MAD
Jun 12 JK5688 MAD-MAH
Jun 15 JK5697 MAH-MAD
Jun 16 JK9851 MAD-YYZ
Jun 16 JK9857 YYZ-YYC

Can add a 23h stop in MAD outbound if desired.

Dec 10 is available as a return date.

Are you using EF? or KVS? Trying to figure out which one will help me most in this quest.

Thanks. That's what I had as well.

Availability is well open for next week and the week after.

Can't find anything for Sept-Dec though.

Good stuff. I was actually brute force searching on EF. My ITA-fu is weak. 12JUN departure works too.

The problem Sep-Dec is E availability on JK codeshares of the AC YYZ-MAD flights, whose frequency goes down to only 3x weekly.

The fare is still published, but there seems to be no E inventory on one of the flights. June with return in August can still be found 96USD on speedy

I booked one on travelocity, but the tickets haven't been issued yet. Anyone else do it this way and get the ticket # yet?

How are you using that with ITA?

Is there are way to get to the terminal interface? I thought only the web form was available?

That is if you put the miles into Aeroplan.

For United, it looks like this:

50% Status on the YYC-YYZ leg
100% Status from YYZ-MAD
100% Status (actual flown - no 500 minimum) for the MAD-MAH return

With Aeroplan you get:

With United you get:
> 10050 Status
