High Cost for Canada FC fares
Hi there, sorry if this is the wrong forum. Seemed like the best fit.
I book a lot of commercial travel for clients (almost always fully refundable, unrestricted first class fares) and I've noticed that fares to Canada have been crazy high the past few months. I mean, we're talking upwards of $7k USD a ticket for RT refundable FC for what is a 1 hr fights from DC or NYC.
Curious if anyone knows what's up.
Thanks!

I would also like to know why fares out of Canada to Asia is also so expensive compared from fares from the USA. I have never been able to get a fare close to anything like from USA to Asia in business class.

I am trying to get a decent fare in PE or business from either YYZ or YUL to AMM. Any advice where I can find one? The fares I have seen on Skyscanner is the same or more than the fares to Asia. I plan to travel end of January.

I tried Kayak and searched YYZ/YUL-AMM from Jan 28 to Feb 11.
The cheapest PE ticket is US$1,637 on AA/RJ YYZ-PHL-CDG-AMM
As for business, the cheapest was US$1,875 on TK on those same dates.

I don't mind flying from YYZ to Europe and then take a separate flight if the fares are that much cheaper than the direct flight from YYZ.
Any advice would be most welcome.
