Found one for $167 (after discount)
YYZ-IAD-DEN-LAS
LAS-ORD-YYZ

+ 1 night hotel

Tempting... But already qualify for E in 2011... No need for MR.

Expedia.ca is remotely related to AC? Now that's funny.

BTW the more direct link is AC flights are available.

I couldn't help myself

Another mileage run I don't need! But, oh so many points ...

Booked YYZ-SFO-LAS-SFO-YYZ, so will earn 2754 status miles + 2754 SE bonus + 3000 Extravaganzel bonus = 8508 miles.

Plus I booked myself at the Holiday Inn Flamingo Las Vegas to get a hit in my Crack the Case promo!

$213 all in

To me it was worth it paying a little more to route through SFO and stay at a HI.

Now just waiting for AC to come through with a December upgrade promo so I can use my blue certs!

Now I need to check myself in to rehab. I have a problem.

ah heck, I m in too...

Dec.10 YYZ-ORD-LAX-LAS (evening flights)

Dec.11-12 LAS-DEN-YVR-YYZ (evening/red-eye) (my first ever domestic Canada flight!!!, but 4/6 United flights - hope the ugrades clear!)

$213 all in (staying at the Super 8 - wanted a hotel with airport shuttle, will get a few hours at the Ellis casino next door too)

13142 miles (a one-way North American for future use)... not bad.
Hoping for oversells too!

Oh no, might have booked a week too soon. Last year, December upgrade program didn't start until Dec 12th! Should have found this thread before I booked.

Maybe, I should book another.

For people thinking about a run:

Just booked a Dec 14, YYC-LAS-SFO-YYC same day turn. Booked it as a flight, then added a $25 hotel at the confirmation page (if you try to book it starting as a package it will reject the dates).

$35.00 / 12 hr MR for ~3820 including the 50% E bonus. Super extra bonus will be if AC put on the Holiday Upgrade Cert deal again, where any cert can upgrade any fare, so that 2 of the legs are in J.

Hey, don't make me regret my vote.

Oops, I think I just disclosed whom I voted for.

Haha I suppose it'd only be fair, but I hope some disgruntled ex-Expedia executive doesn't trash the DO.

Uh oh. Yesterday we joked that you went home early to check on your Esso miles after you went AWOL. I knew this will bring you back.

getting airfare one way out of YHZ lower than $300 would be a joke. No free airfare + hotel package for me!

Booked YYZ-SFO-LAS-SFO-YYZ, so will earn 5508 status miles + 5508 SE bonus + 3000 Extravaganzel bonus = 14,016 miles. Now we're talking!

Even without the hotel, that works out to 1.5 cpm!

I don't care. For one night, I will close my eyes. My Crack the Case promo is worth 120K PC points! And this will give me Platinum status for next year.

I can't go...but I made a booking from the cheapest city connecting to Vegas, with a stay at the Bellagio.

I figure that either this will all get cancelled and we'll get vouchers or I can offload the bellagio night on Ebay if they actually go through with it...
