A few $ more for YVR-PEK, unfortunately no 25% discount on 2-11 year olds...

Need a VISA anyway. TWOV requires a third country in play.

Interesting... a new $1,000 base fare filed on Oct 22. Thats dirt cheap... wow!

Dates are constrained as follows:

when I price out on CheapoAir I get $1175 RT per adult and $930 RT for 2-11 year olds. At this price, I’d almost do a long weekend to visit the Great Wall with the kids...

yup, just edited my post above yours. And for some reason Cheapo Air is pricing even lower than GF or the filed fare

I’ve kept playing with this and am getting varying results on OTAs, some quite interesting when i query for my entire family. Vayama is calculating adult and child base fare correctly, but when i book 2 adults and 3 children it is actually not including any taxes at all on the 2 adult tickets. So it’s calculating adults at $1k each and children at $750 base + $277 taxes each. So i can get all 5 of us for $5079. Dates are super constrained but i got this pricing to stick for March 7 outbound and return March 11. Kids more expensive than adults, well that is a first ;-)
soy and Croupier like this.
