AC Buz fares to Asia spike in $
I cannot believe my eyes but fares in Buz Class have increased dramatically on AC to Asia.. Only 2 weeks ago I was eyeing fares to BKK, TPE or SIN for around $2.5-3.5K, Now they are in the $5k++ range. If you check google flights you will see the lower fares crossed out with the new hefty fares now offered. Pure greed..

Saw that as I wanted to go back to ICN and do the TMZ tour again and it's just silly expensive.

Also, are you within the 7, 14, 30 day advance purchase ranges?
But I just booked ( for the first time in 30+ years) Transpacific flights with CX - they were much more reasonable than AC.

I looked at historical fares for BKK for purchase around 10-20 December and I don't see anything out of YOW for 2500$
Can OP provide more insight?
