[PREM FARE GONE] Ba/aa: Yvr-cdg, 1488usd

looks like BA/AA have at least partially matched the Canada-EU deals from ST, at least CDG is HEAVILY discounted. I can see it bookable on all-AA fare codes, though it looks like most of the routings are BA through LHR.

e.g.:

1-week minimum stay, same as the skyteam deal.

Is there anyway to get the AARP discount out of Canada? I assume no, but just in case...

there is not. BUT the credit card discount-code CARDOFFERC (C, not U, because... Canada) will get you another couple bucks off.

Thank you! I tried booking on their Canadian site and got an error message that I wasn't eligible so I'll keep on trying with various browsers.

$1350 to Paris seems like a pretty great deal.

Leaving tomorrow on a SEA-LHR-MAD flight which we bought in October and was in this range, but was AARP eligible and so 5 flying for just a hair under $5k. Many friends taking similar trips in economy for about the same cost this summer. These fares are amazing!
Also dont forget the 25k N American bonus for flights this month.

I purchased during the same deal, I'm leaving on Aug 2nd for a month. Love these deals especially from YVR.

Really tempting fare. Pretty much one of the last chances to earn a good chunk of AA miles at a good price in J before the changes occur. Was curious though if you guys think the A330 to PHL is a better option than the 777 to DFW? I believe that 777 is the old config but not totally sure.

So I wanted to thank Smiley90 for posting this - I'm running the Berlin Marathon in September (okay, jogging it) - and I had to book all my travel through a travel agent who was arranging the 'tour'.

We had booked AC early this year from YVR to LHR and with advance seat selection to get exit rows, my wife and I were paying about $1600 CDN each to get there.

Well, wouldn't you know it - AC changed our return flight by 2.5h this week, meaning we were eligible to cancel for refund and rebook these tickets in J instead!

My wife is positively thrilled that we're going to fly J from YVR in mid September instead of a not-so-great Y for another couple hundred bucks each. And moving back to OW where I'll be Emerald soon enough has other benefits.

Thanks again Smiley90. You made my week!
