Same day turns available, even on Saturdays. Works out to 1850 miles or 5.14CPM. Not great CPM, but an easy run.
Not seeing this fare anymore... Still available for anyone else?

Thanks for the tips, all. Very special. ^

According to their schedule, WOW doesn't enter BOS until 27 March, and right now the first $99 OW fare is mid-October. Would be nice for taking the short tour of the area in keeping with the very short days at that point. Or spending the whole time in the hot baths. Annnyway, now that we know that $99 is possible, we can hope for some (even hidden) fare sales in the meantime.


ETA: ...Annnnnd it's just winked out for October. Dayam, I know better than to boost a deal before I've nailed it. Actually, testing it while writing this, I could see $99 dates on the calendar, but, trying several, they wouldn't show up @ $99, even as BF, in the box on the right ... Also, FYI, it looks as though EOS is 31 October.

There was lots of these last year too, a bit restrictive date-wise but if you can swing the right days that's an awesome way to check out the Azores!

Hell even just as a cheap way to get to Montreal this is damn good. Won't find a fare RT like this ex-YVR.

JFK - CPH: $367 USD - Norwegian Air Shuttle (low fare carrier, tons of fees, but for the single bachelor with a flexible schedule [me] it works)

NOTE: If you book in DKK (Danish currency), the cost comes to $324 USD once converted- provided you have a credit card with 0% transaction fees.

Check calendar of low fares for specific dates.

Sample dates: 2/16-2/23

Note: If booking in DKK, be on the line with your credit card's fraud prevention line. I was on the whole time during booking, saved $50, but I had to have the guy on the line reset the system four times before it went through.

MIA-LGA Jan 24th on Frontier for $29. It's also the same price LGA-MIA on the same day and is timed nicely for a day trip to NYC if anyone is interested.

Question, do you follow these often? I'm wondering...

1. Do these cheap fares to Russia only come up closer to dept date? When I look ahead everything is pricey.

2. Or are the prices more based on weather/season? I've been looking at like August/Sept, just because that's when I'm free, I think Russia would be cool to visit in the winter and especially if it's cheap but these flights in August/Sept are all expensive regardless of ex-YVR ex-YYZ ex-NY and regardless of alliance.

Ahead is in summer. These deals come up every winter, and usually only in winter. Although this year seems to be more extreme, probably due to their currency.

YHZ-CPH CAD 700 rt

From Halifax (YHZ) to Copenhagen (CPH) and back on *A, all Mondays from Feb2 to March 2, also Feb 17, 24, and Mach 3. Starting at CAD 697:

Booking classes are K (Air Canada) and T (SAS).

Example:
Feb 2, departure at 23:20: YHZ to LHR on AC (direkt), LHR to CPH (via Oslo or Stavanger) on SAS
Feb 10: CPH to YHZ on AC (via Toronto YYZ)

Total mileage travelled: 8447 (via Stavanger), 8607 (via Oslo), and slightly more if you add a sector on the return, like CPH-YYZ-YOW-YHZ (certain days available for the same price).

Sometimes ITA Matrix monthly overview even showed CAD 626 on various days in March, but when I tried to bring them up I received strange error messages.#
