Thanks for the heads up, sorry about the noob mistake! I am not sure what you mean about the fuel surcharge and UK fee, I included that when I said "all in" $550 cad. Were you adding this to the $197?

I don't understand if they have these rates all the time why do they advertise worse rates than this. The way they advertise is one way before tax and surcharge so this is $98.50 US each way before tax and surcharge? for a flight to LHR?? I don't remember seeing fares like this. Is this common for all carriers?

Sorry for the noob questions, I do appreciate any wisdom you can pass on.
