Halifax to Edmonton - $414 roundtrip after taxes - summer travel!
29
May
These days, prices from Halifax to Western Canada rarely seem to dip too much below $700 roundtrip after taxes, especially for summer travel.
However there seems to be a few freak fares in late June and early July in the Air Canada system that are going for nearly 40% less. True discounts (not the marketing nonsense from Westjet/AC/Porter) on flights within Canada are extremely rare so I get pretty excited when I see them.
Here are some examples:

Try clicking through to Orbitz to book. If you get a message on Orbitz about the "fare not being available for that itinerary", click on the Select button on the first fare you see, and it will verify (At least, it is at the time of this writing).

There's some decent prices in the $500s to Vancouver as well (try the same dates as the cheap ones to Edmonton).
UPDATE: I've found some in July and August for the same price...

A rare event, good deals within Canada thanks to a perfect storm on Westjet

Prices within Canada are stupid. Everybody knows that. Westjet and Air Canada jack up the prices and then offer promo codes to try and convince people there are deals to be had, but the price hasn't actually budged.

This is the cheapest flights to Calgary have been in years - $347 roundtrip after tax!

Update @ 12 AM: The promo code (which expired at midnight) made this deal a bit better, but the real key here was the large drop on the base fare. Looks like it works out to $383 roundtrip after tax without the promo code, which is still a pretty amazing price for Halifax to Calgary, especially for summer. And as of this writing, still available.
