Just going to book it and if a cheap DONE4 appears before i fly, then i'll cancel my LONE4 and rebook DONE4.

Question - For those ticketing out of CAI or MPM - How did you pay for these tickets? A residence in either country wasn't required?
There never was a residency requirement. There was a currency requirement years ago. It allowed buying in another country, but not buying in yours at the lower price. It was dropped.

Old requirement:
Code:
121N . 3. WHEN TRAVEL ORIGINATES IN A COUNTRY FOR WHICH
122N . A SPECIFIC LOCAL CURRENCY FARE IS PUBLISHED AND
123N . TICKET IS SOLD IN ANOTHER COUNTRY, THE FARE WILL
124N . BE THAT PUBLISHED FOR THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN
125N . CONVERTED TO THE CURRENCY OF THE COUNTRY OF SALE
126N . AT THE BSR. THE RESULTANT FARE MUST NOT BE LOWER
127N . THAN FROM THE COUNTRY OF SALE, SEE MINUMUM FARE
128N . CHECK BELOW.
129N . --------------------------------------------------
130N . -----
131N . EXCEPTION NOT APPLICABLE
132N . FOR SALES MADE AND/OR TRAVEL ORIGINATING IN CANADA
