No idea about AC, but I have two fully transferable business class r/t vouchers good with Oasis Hong Kong out of YVR. These are flight vouchers not U/G vouchers.

If you're interested drop me a PM

Try Tour East

I've heard Cathay Pacific has some great YVR-HKG fares too.

I'd avoid these people if you are going to buy flexible tickets due to my experiences summarised in this thread:

Hint. There's a connection to post 11 on the thread

I think just about any Asian tour agent can handle what you want.

I understand you're upset with Expedia, but you referenced my post about TourEast.ca when you said you'd avoid these people... as if they're linked. Is there something we missed?

Well, try their booking interface and compare that to Expedia.ca's. Try calling their air travel ticketing desk and compare that to Expedia.ca's. I also won't explicitly say who issues paper tickets for Expedia.ca, and who you have to return paper tickets to before you can even make any changes with Expedia (I'm not joking), even for a fully-flexible ticket.

FWIW, WWTE is an Expedia back-end for reservations. Used to be used by many airlines for their vacation reservations but you don't see it anymore with airlines like AA and AS that used to use them. Either the supplier has been changed or the back-end is now more carefully hidden.

For YVR-HKG:
Cathay Pacific is now advertising CAD$695 fare and Oasis has a deal for those over 55 years old CAD$249 one way.

Here are good reason to avoid EXPEDIA
 
They tried to scam (that is the rigth word) me once . A lot of people also had horrible stories to tell
