Just booked tonight 2 reward tix, for me and my wife, YVR – YOW direct flight, a 1-way tix. Total of 32,600 points + $67.46 Business (I) class.
Inspired and reminded by Ricky. Thanks, Ricky. I will treat you Pho in Vancouver if you are available. 🙂
Quick question Ricky, I just bought a one-way to YYZ on AC Boeing 787 leaving YVR at 16:00 on June 6th for $1140 all incl. Biz class. Couldn’t find anything cheaper. Do you know why I couldn’t get the $899 fare? Thanks for clarifying. Cheers, Robert
If you look at the “Travel Dates” in the screenshot on the fare sale, the sale period is June 15 – September 6.
Thanks Ricky! Missed that! Thanks again and enjoy your family time! Cheers, Robert
How do you calculate 1.8-1.9 cpp?
The most accurate way is to check the cash price of the exact same itinerary, subtract tax portion of the award ticket, and divide that by the points amount.
For example, I’m looking at booking a weekend trip YVR-YYZ. The award ticket is 12,400 points + $75, and the cash price for those same flights is $319. The rate is: (319-75) / 12,400 = $0.0197, which is 1.96 cpp.
Thanks, but what about when the cash price has a different (lower) tax amount?
I originally booked 4 cash fares in Y yyz-yyc. ($116 each) Rebooked it to 4 J fares at 15.3k each instead. Super excited to bring able to treat family on their first J flight and lie-flat experience! It will be kept as a secret until check-in time 😁
Ahh, I love hearing about stuff like this. Enjoy!
Ricky,
Do you expect any Air Canada and Aeroplan’s Quarter 4 International seat sale?
Would Aeroplan’s change and cancellation policy be extended to June 30, 2021 from May (free of charge)?
Thanks!
Once the picture around international travel is clearer, I absolutely expect some thrilling seat sales (with Aeroplan dynamic pricing to match) to get our butts into Air Canada’s seats. Whether that’s Q4 of this year or early next year is still a bit early to tell.
I do expect the cancellation policy to be extended past May 31 too – we’ll find out soon enough.
