[DL] JFK - ANC (June & July) Wkend Travel Available 5.1 CPM
I saw some Thursday and Friday departures and returning on Sunday and Monday so it makes for a nice wkend trip - also nice to visit Anchorage in the summer. You can layover in SLC for more miles or go through SEA if you want more time in ANC. I guess a 5.1 cpm it's more of a jog than a run. Also apologizes in advance if this is in the wrong thread.

DL: DFW-YYZ/YUL, $364.
At first glance, it looks like an okay fare, but nothing special. But, the special part is that it is good every Saturday, for two- or three-day stays, through EoS, even for peak holiday periods like Canada Day, Thanksgiving week (both countrys'), or Christmas week!
Amazing!
