I think everyone knows already, but I guess will post anyway..

Do you know you can buy a return ticket by Air Canada to Hong Kong, London, Paris, Sao Paolo, Bagota or Lima for $199.

http://www.aircanada.com/en/offe ... ss/escape_pass.html

You have to buy 4 one way Canada flights tickets for $130 each, then you can buy a $199 return flight to Hong Kong, total price including taxes for everything is $755

Even if you throw away that 4 one way ticket, you can still go to HK for $755, which is way cheaper than buying regular. Go somewhere for a weekend lor.

Catch is you have to book by Janurary 28, travel before June 15.

can you explain more??
i only see the deal is within canada and US...

Basically you have to buy a package, it's call the escape pass. Escape pass is pacakge of 4 or 8 one way tickets within Canada.

So after you buy the 4 one way tickets for $130 each (plus tax), which equals to $546, then you can purchase a return ticket to Hong Kong for $199 + tax = 208.95, so total is $755

You can buy the 4 one way ticket from Canada to US too, but the total will be more expensive as the 4 one way ticket cost more than $130 each, so IF you can use those one way tickets, then it's up to you.

Catch is you have to use the 4 one way tickets from Jan 15 to May 3, and the trip to HK have to be between April 14 to June 15

I dun think that is a really good deal

When you buy tickets you only included taxes in the price, how about all the surcharges and fees? Those will increase the cost by a lot right?

I booked this pass already. The price for the (cheapest) pass is $745 including all tax and surcharges. The catch is that your international trip (HK, London, Paris, plus few more) need to be in between mid-April to late-June. It is $745 for a round trip to HK, plus 2 round trips with BC/AB. Yes, 3 round trips in total.

If the time fits your vacation (which I do), it is the cheapest in the market right now.

it's a pretty good deal ... air canada's round trip to hk alone is $981.15 with tax and surcharges included .. so you can save around $200 with the pass

From any city to HK ? or just Vancouver?

Since usually, cost $300-350 more from Calgary to HK ..

The North West escape pass is valid for selected cities in BC/AB/SK. Calgary is included and it is the same price. Check their website for fine details.

East cost has a different pass and cost a bit more.

Yes, $745 all included and I paid and booked my flight to HK already. If you still don't trust me, read RedFlagDeals and they have 16 pages long of discussion:

Good news, I am planning to go to Paris.

Just in case if you aren't an Aeroplan member, don't wait for the last day. You will need to be a member to purchase these passes. The deadline to purchase the Escape pass is end of this month (I think is 28th). And after that you could still purchase the bonus $199 tickets before March.

But if all you want is the HK ticket, purchase it right away and booked it too, of course.
