A very good sale to Vancouver — this fare is good until January, 2014. You can plan those Whistler winter getaways now!
Trip Hack: For those in the New York tri-state area, enter “ZFV” as the origination city for your search. You’ll have to take Amtrak from Philadelphia to Newark prior to flying to Vancouver. As long as you catch the outbound Amtrak leg, you can hop off at Newark on the return to avoid getting your itinerary cancelled.
