ACI – Vancouver

I’m going to India in mid february and I was wondering what are some cheap flights I can look at for a group of 8 people and 1 toodler?

I find Orbitz.com’s prices very cheap and it’s really reliable.

Red eye flights would be from Hawaii to the west coast as the flight depart at night and you arrive in the morning. Flying from the continental US to Hawaii, you gain time.

Both of the answers given thusfar are not entirely accurate. Beginning June 5, Delta will have nonstop service between Vancouver and Atlanta — they will fly once per day between YVR and ATL, leaving YVR at 11:45am and arriving in ATL shortly before 8:00pm. (The flight from ATL to YVR leaves at about 8:00am and will arrive in time for the returning flight — it’s the same plane turning around and going back to ATL at 11:45am.)

not first class just economy, i dont got numbers of travel agents so an approximation from you will be fine… i am not in canada tho my destination is calgary but my flight will drop me off in vancouver as the vancouver flight will be cost effective if you catch my drift………………………..

You do not say whether you are looking at a one way flight or return…the costs will vary depending on the day you are flying (the earlier you book generally the cheaper it is) and the time. Certain times of the day are more expensive than others. Without a date, and only being approximate, for a one way flight you are looking at $150 to $260 and $ 300 to $500 for a return flight. Presently Westjet is have a seat sale so prices are a bit lower than normal.

The flight time is about 1 hour and 20 minutes.

i’d be going either during summer holidays (of next year) or march break, and id be staying for about a week or two…. where can i find the best deal on a two-way flight ticket??? i dont need a hotel plan or anything.

There are flights brokers/ booking sites which find online the cheapest flight for you. The best ones are listed here: http://www.willgoto.com/1/023798/liens.aspx

No hidden fees.
Use flexible dates in your query

If you are looking for prices in Can $, Expedia.ca is the usual answer.

If you are looking for the very best deals, try also other booking sites which quote prices in US$. For instance, Travelocity offers often the best deals.

BTW As for August 2010, it is probably a bit too early to get prices
.

looking for the best place to buy cheap airline tickets?

Use www.travade.com

Since this is an International Flight, make sure to use the little blue link, ‘International Flight Search’ on the home page as opposed to the regular home page search. You will find a cheaper fare.

I have found this site to beat all the others 9 out of 10 times. If it asks you to type something in a box if you have not refreshed the page for a long time, type in ‘travade’ and it refreshes itself.

Good luck!

Does anyone know of the cheapest flights from Vancouver to Bangkok? What would be a typical cost (high/low season)? Is there any low-cost options available or will I have to fly with one of the alliances (Star, Oneworld, etc.)? When I look online for prices, I am getting too many "junk" results. Thanks

I suggest that you check out the prices at Cathay Pacific:

They had the cheapest flights last time I checked. And you can buy your ticket directly from them with your credit card.

"Hi"…remember the South Terminal was the first airport and I’d say it was 1932 as I pulled the following facts ……

1932
The first scheduled passenger flights begin, with Alaska Washington Airway’s transborder service to Seattle, Washington. Soon after, Canadian Airways begins operations to Victoria.

1934
On July 1, United Air Lines begins flights to Seattle using a new 10-passenger Boeing 247 aircraft for passengers, mail and cargo. The following year, Canadian Airways begins regular passenger and airmail service to Seattle.

I got that from this site……

Some interesting Charles Lindbergh stuff in 1927 as regards the old YVR and resulting in the South Terminal being started in 1929….*lol*

Glad to help ! *S* (Michael C…)
