Unless that is specific to AP/reward tickets.... for most revenue tickets I always thought it was one year from the date of the first sector.

Booked a trip for 2 to YUL for Canada Day and YYC for the Stampede, almost all in J for 25k + $190 per person to clear out my Aeroplan account. Nice.

Now let's all hope this sticks.

Thanks OP and rehoult for cross-posting in the MR Deals.

Oh sweet! I assumed they added everyone. Since LX recently blew me away with their F product this is music to my ears.

Talk about timely! The wife and I were planning to book reward tix this weekend anyway, for a trip YVR-LIS during Easter week. With the "promo", we now have 100% confirmed J (YVR-YYZ-DUS-LIS-ZRH-YUL-YVR; 2x AC 1x LH, 1x LX, 2x TP) for 60k + $321/pax.

I guess she'll stop making fun of me for lurking FT now ;-)

Congrats! I'll have to transfer SPG's before I can book for 2. I'm wondering if I should make the leap or if this "promo" will be dead by the time they transfer.

I've tried calling since I'd like to put together a two stopover trip and I'm getting a busy signal. Has anyone else had this problem today?

They probably didn't anticipate the interest in their promo

I wonder if the promo will be over when the calling centre closes at midnight Eastern today
