Actually, I'll be starting in YYC May 20 going to ATL for 100 TP, but from ATL back to YYC is open how I do it for at least an additional 400 TP. I'm also open to ending up in LAX (for example) and catching Westjet or AC back to YYC.

My only requirement is no really early start from ATL, as I'm staying with friends and I can't ask them to take me to the airport for a 5:50 am flight.

Suggestions appreciated! I think I've spent about 2 full days on ITA and my eyes are glazing over!

I havent had a look on matrix but typically the really cheap / good TP runs are to places in the Caribbean, South or Latin America.

A US to Canada trip is never going to yield great £/TP ratio though you are likely able to build in a few stops and bump TP without increasing the cost.
