That's a very clever strategy. I am looking into how to do it HKG-YYZ-HKG. Any suggestion? I looked into CX website. It costs over USD$5000 for J.


There are no good deal fares to Eastern Canada. In fact Only Destination in Canada that have good Deal fares from Asia is YVR.
MNL-YVR-MNL on SQ.Which official has to be issued by MNL TA.
There is a way around that. Have your TA add HKG-MNL sector and the Ticket can be issued outside of MNL.

If you want YYZ. Do what I do. Find an EX: Asia fare to Eastern USA with No HIP Check. Than YYZ becomes a stopover.

In April 2009 I have to be in Asia & LHR.
I bought a fare EX: Asian-City to Eastern US City published *A Carrier which allows me to use SQ & LH.
Asian City-SIN-LHR(Stop 3 days) - Eastern USA -YYZ (STOP)-EasternUSA-FRA (STOP)-SIN LH (STOP)- Asian City. USD. 3129.67 AI. In J.
SIN-LHR SQ 380.
FRA-SIN will use my UA SWU to Upgrade FRA-SIN to First.^

Living in YYZ only Good Deal Premium Fares that work for me are ones with NO HIP CHECK. These are the fares you should look for EX: Asia- USA with NO HIP CHECK.They are slightly higher but well worth it. On Average they are USD.3K. RT.

There are fares EX: Asia- LAX for 2K RT.With HIP Check. You will have to buy LAX-YYZ-LAX which can be 500.00 so not much of a savings.
