Post by Tango01 »

Why are flights to Vancouver so expensive? I checked with Jetsgo, WJ, AC. They all want way too much $$$

Fineprint is what kills our wallets. There is so much tax and hidden crap on air fares, that what they show you is just a base price to try to attract impulsive shoppers. Then, they make you buy a return ticket (which is always more expensive) + taxes (Nav Canada, AIF, fuel, security, etc) Next thing you know, you're spending a lot more than you though you would! Greyhound all the way baby :lol:

When are you travelling? If it's in the summer I know that Westjet's flights are heavily booked, which is probably why our tickets are so expensive. Keep an eye out for seat sales, they've already started at all carriers......

Perhaps they are so expensive because the airlines have to burn extra fuel to overcome the strong gravitational forces emanating from the centre of the known universe!
