Exclamation DL: mistake (?) fares across the board

$1.90 EWR to LAX ($23.84 all in)
$10.24 YUL to PHX ($92.90 all in)

Looks like a major problem with DL fares. They seem to be bookable on Expedia.ca.

haven't tried to book, but March and April seem open as well (according to ITA). Dang...i don't fly DL, and would have to position to JAX, but might have to book this for the heck of it b/c it is crazy good.

It was bookable on Delta and is no longer available.

Fare seems to be dead, but good find.

Yeah, I see a bunch of crazy DL fares this morning on google flights. DTW-MIA for $31, DTW-PHX for $52, etc. What?? Clicking through yields much higher prices. Momentary fare misload or google flights confusion?

Err, well something's up. I just bought DTW-JFK-LAS-MSP-GRB-DTW for $72.81 for DEC 30 - 31. Crazy. Some of these fares are bookable folks! LAX-MIA is $36.85 in B class! 12/30 - 12/31.

I managed to book YUL-PHX and PHX-YUL on Expedia.ca in First (P) for $100 there and $50 back! Nice...

Got confirmation email from Expedia with ticket numbers 006xxxxxxxxxx, too!
