If you're looking to check out California this winter, maybe have a look at flights on Air Canada from Halifax to Monterey, California (MRY).
For some strange reason, flights to this smaller, less traveled airport are showing up as nearly 40% cheaper than flights to major cities in California such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc, which are around $700 roundtrip after tax for the cheapest flights.

And just south of Monterey is Big Sur, which is also unbelievably scenic:
