For Australia DL has really dragged the price down (one of their new destinations) and UA seems to be following; too bad they fly crappy old 747... Unfortunatly I don't think AC has realised this yet....

I just did a quick check on Expedia and June 16 - June 23 for YYZ-SIN clocks in @:

DL: CAD $2183
SQ: CAD $2270
UA: CAD $2431
AC: CAD $2729

That SQ is particularly good, considering SQ is rarely cheaper than the competition and is arguably one of the best airlines you could fly.

If you can get to NRT for cheaper, you can easily get NRT-SIN round trip for about USD $800 all in on SQ. UA does it even cheaper but they don't have a daily flight so you have to adjust.
