[PREMIUM FARE GONE] AC - TYO-YTO - 242430 JPY / $1544 USD r/t - Business

Huge drop in price!! Air Canada - Tokyo, Japan (NRT / HND) to Toronto, Canada (YYZ / YTZ) - 242430 JPY / $1544 USD roundtrip in business class!

Ticket must be issued by June 10, 2024 (but I don't expect this fare to make it that long) You can depart almost every single day from June 7 to October 31, 2024. Fly one of the flights below across the Pacific. Minimum stay is 24 hours, so you can make this a mileage run fairly easily! Max stay is 12 months (unlike the KUL fare). Up to 2 stopovers in each direction at 100 CAD each. Up to 3 transfers permitted in each direction. Blackout dates below as well.

Category 4: Flight restrictions

THE FARE COMPONENT MUST INCLUDE TRAVEL VIA EACH
TRANSPACIFIC SECTOR ON
ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING
AC FLIGHTS 0001 THROUGH 0010
AC FLIGHTS 0023 THROUGH 0024
AC FLIGHTS 0059 THROUGH 0060.

Category 11: Blackout Dates

FROM JAPAN -
TRAVEL IS NOT PERMITTED 10AUG 24 THROUGH 12AUG 24.
TO JAPAN -
TRAVEL IS NOT PERMITTED 02JAN 25 THROUGH 05JAN 25.
NRT-YVR-YUL-YYZ-YUL-YVR-NRT
14524 Miles | $1544 USD Roundtrip
10.6307 cents USD per Mile Flown

I'll calculate and post how many miles you'll earn on various airlines in a few minutes. I just want to post this quickly before it disappears!

great deal.

Too bad it has to only originate from TYO, and can't break into a one-way (or i'd econ one way there and business back)

Wow thanks. This is a pretty nice fare. It appears they are booked in "Business class (flexible)" which is fully refundable.

Just bought NRT-YVR-YYZ-NRT. Extended layover in YVR to see family for 243,000 JPY or $1,558 USD. Got eticket. Will have to position from my NH JFK-KUL flight to get to NRT.

Also, prices in and out of HND appear to be $100 USD more, but I haven't researched much yet. This was a book now think later ticket.

It's odd we have two low fares from Asia at once, this one and the one from KUL. If only flights were this cheap in the other direction, but this is still a great price for a roundtrip from Asia!

Here's what you'll earn in several airline programs -

NRT-YVR-YUL-YYZ-YUL-YVR-NRT
14524 Miles | $1544 USD Roundtrip
10.6307 cents USD per Mile Flown

Crediting to Aegean
29048 Miles (Cost per Mile - 5.3153 cents USD / 0.049 EUR)

Crediting to Air Canada
21786 SQM's (Cost per SQM - 7.0871 cents USD / 0.097 CAD)

Crediting to Asiana
14524 Miles (Cost per Mile - 10.6307 cents USD / 145.67 KRW)

Crediting to Avianca
18155 LifeMiles (Cost per LM - 8.5045 cents USD)

Crediting to Miles & More
560 Points (Cost per M&M Point - $2.76 USD / 2.55 EUR)

Crediting to SAS
14524 Basic Points (Cost per Point - 10.6307 cents USD / 0.098 EUR)

Crediting to Singapore Airlines
14524 Miles (Cost per Mile - 10.6307 cents USD / 0.14 SGD)

Crediting to United
21786 Redeemable Miles
4357 PQP's (Cost per PQP - 35.4372 cents USD)

Yes, these are Flexible / Refundable fares, which makes them even better!!

In the first post, my link from HND is $6 USD more than NRT, so some dates the price difference is negligible.

Worth noting this fare can be combined with other AC "business" published fares. Obviously not nearly as good. E.g. makes ~$2050 for PHL/BOS/NYC. That's still a decent-ish price to avoid having to stress about unprotected repositions.

This is DEAD!

The fare was just deleted! Google Flights is re-pricing as you click on each date. Congrats to the few of you that got to book!




EDIT

I see I'm slow to post this. Sorry 3 people posted basically the same thing in a row!
