Bzzzzttt... oh, too bad. Wrong answer, but thanks for playing. Please drive through.

I just called US Airways at 800-428-4322 (found on www.canada411.com) and asked for the lowest fare from Toronto to Pittsburg, departing March 14 and returning March 27. The agent's verbatim response was "The base fare is $289.60 Canadian."

I dunno. Are you suggesting that Wal-Marts in Canada start repricing all their stock in US dollars?
