Has anyone come across low latitude fares within Canada, US or international? At one point, AC published cheap YYZ-LAX latitude fares occasionally (around $1.2k return) but haven't seen these in a while.

What do you mean "cheap"?

You can buy Rapidair B fares for less than $600 each way.

I mean less expensive latitude fares such as example I gave. Want to maximize e-credits before end of Feb.

Less expensive than what?

Than business class on the same route?

Than a house?

I think it is probably fairly clear that the original poster is looking for clues to Latitude fares that are unusually low compared to other destinations nearby, or to destinations that are equivalent in some other defined way.

I don;t think it is worth giving the OP a hard time, since the question is legitimate and the answer may be of interest to a large number of members.

Well done with your sarcasm. You seem to have a hard time understanding the example I gave of YYZ-LAX-YYZ at approx. $1200. Let me know if there is another way I can help you understand this better.

Okay, I can beat that.

YVR-YYJ. Even cheaper.

Do you just want the cheapest published Latitude fare? You still haven't explained what you want. Do you just want a list of all the $1200 Latitude fares?

Did you actually find this somewhere? If so, can you give me some sample dates.

The idea is great, since I can buy latitude, spend 2 eUpgrade credits and it would be cheaper than buying J, and get almost the same miles. (125% vs 150%)

However, I usually find Business lowest (P) is cheaper than B or Y and for me, usually my dates are fairly fixed anyway. Last year I remember paying just one change fee in Flex.
