Good one. Enjoy its beautiful.

My gut tells me its valid but like I said its best to wait 2 weeks before you book anything. If the price you paid was say for example £200pp return to NYC its more likely to be accepted than if it was £59pp. Airline also takes into account bad publicity like the Alitalia fiasco a few years back . I paid £38pp (yes that is not a typo) for return tickets to NYC. They cancelled everyones ticket. Then the huge media fiasco began and they succumbed and honoured them like 2 weeks later.

No with Finnair. I was actually on holiday in Florida in March and saw it and booked it straight away. Of course I have to fill in the gaps myself so going from Hong Kong to Vietnam and then from there to Japan. Keep an eye on fly4free or secretflying or hacktheflight.

Last year paid £221 for Rome to Johannesburg. Cape Town to Dubai. Dubai to Rome. It allows me to visit more countries for a small places but not many people would like that.

My ticket has been confirmed by TravelUp! I'm going to LAX. Woop!

Thank you SO much OP!

Id wait to call them until Monday. That's what I'm doing.

Booked via FlySharp and got e-ticket, and credit card has been charged.

Can't see it being cancelled now. Especially if you have e-tickets.

Have you received your e-ticket? Who did you book through?

at what point do we phone them to ask for booking confirmation?

I rather know one way or the other

Still no cancellation so I'm beginning to feel more optimistic....

Wow, well done. I'm looking at Japan next year and would've loved something like that. Brussels is a great city too. Was that Air China by chance?

We booked two tickets at £199 each and it looks like they're still valid. Had confirmation emails and etickets but also had a follow up email about visa/eTA requirements same as misteraadam.

No worries, always worth a try with these things! New York Jan 17-24

Aah, boll*cks. I'm sorry mate. Which flight did you go for?

Finally got my cancellation email, the dreams over.

"your ticket was advertised and issued at an undeniable and recognisably erroneous fare" :face_with_monocle:

Check your spam folder if you ordered through lastminute, mine appeared there.

Oh, I know, it better to not alert them to it! I'm just eager to book my hotels and car hire as I've got some vouchers that are expiring very soon. Ah well, guess I'll just have to wait......

Have to pay for it.
Don't call them. That's the first rule when it comes to these deals. Maybe if nothing in a few deals then perhaps feel free to call them.

Yup, don't want to rock the boat just yet! Did you have to pay/apply for your eTA, or did they just send it to you automatically?

Exactly the same conversation I was just having with the missus, think I'll leave it as well and see what happens in a day or so.

Really? I haven't got anything yet. I'm very tempted to call but I think I'll wait a bit longer.

Well i just received a Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) form from travel trolley for Canada...

Let's hope! I want to start booking my hotels and car hire!!

No cancellation received here either. Looks like this deal has come through.

Nothing yet.

Have you heard anything yet, I haven't had an email one way or the other?

To be honest, I've booked the return to LA for £200 and it's not THAT much of a glitch as I flew Air New Zealand this year to LA for £260 but that was a Black Friday deal.

I've still yet to hear anything to say my ticket has been cancelled but I don't see how they can justify cancelling it as they've taken payment, sent me an e-ticket and all my details are true and correct, unlike other price glitches where people have said they live elsewhere, and therefore the airline were able to use that that to cancel the ticket.

Anyway, as I said, fingers crossed!

Obviously posting here spreads it further, but there's a couple of websites dedicated to finding error fares. This was posted to Holiday Pirates after those said sites found the error and then someone posted it here. Those sites get plenty of visitors and so even without being on here it is still gonna be a big risk.

But yeah, I wouldn't post other glitches.

Even if you have your eticket as people are finding out it can be cancelled, but typically you are within a good shout of getting it if you have it.

Popular routes like this are rare, but it has happened!

The problem people typically face is that so many online travel agencies do not have automated systems. They require manual booking and so when it comes time for someone to process your ticket request through the price has changed and they can't book your ticket.

Unlike other price errors it is better to phone the company and they'll book it there and then. And it isn't like you're tipping them off to any price error that they will then adjust because they're not in control of the price, the airline is via a central system all these companies use.

100% correct. There's absolutley no point in posting these error fares to the masses, like Holiday Pirates, and this person has done on HUKD. If a few people book it then there's a good chance it won't be spotted, but as soon as a mass of people start booking they're obviously going to catch on and cancel the bookings.

The poster is not doing anyone a favour here.

I never understand why people or websites post these deals.
Most likely to not be found out if a handful of people take advantage of the glitch however the glitch gets publicised and 1000s of people visit there site/ book on and inevitably all get cancelled.

Error fares are a lottery. I have managed to get a hand on a few and lost some. One of the one's that work is this October £150pp from Brussels to Hong Kong and then Japan back to Brussels (aka open jaw).

Got an email saying my payment was not cleared, this obviously means that it was cancelled. Ah well, nothing to lose right..

Oh s**t. I really hope mine doesn't get cancelled. I did it through TravelUp. Not heard anything yet but keeping everything crossed!

I booked through last minute at 14:10 to NY and mine has been cancelled too. Shame.

You were correct...

Just got "Booking Declined" email, but my booking is still live with Air Canada... i will wait a few days

Mine's been cancelled too. Bought through lastminute. Gutted.

just checked my flight details using my e ticket on air candas site and says its cancelled :disappointed:

Good luck but read my comment above.

Even if you have eticket it can still be cancelled.
Even if you select seats it can still be cancelled.
As every error fare do not book anything! i.e. hotel.
Wait 2 weeks approx. to fully smile and know you've got a error fare :smile: its addictive

if you got your ticket with your booking ref which works on air canada's website, you should be fine. My booking was made at 15:25 and i can select my seats :smile:

Had you recieved your E-ticket by the time they had called?

Heat

Got my E-Ticke too, can it still be cancelled after having that issued?

thanks,

Nice

Yes, had a call from FlySharp earlier regarding AirCanada not selling at that price, had option for refund or to take normal price.

Hopefully your booking agent will honour it.

Firms are now calling all those that have booked to inform them of pricing error and full refunds. Darn it!

No longer seem to be at that price

Friend just said this... "Mines just been cancelled. Opodo. Heads up. I booked March."

try Skyscanner

Was so close to booking, just needed confirmation of my friend. Missed out big time!

Prices are now all back up. Seems they have found their error, hopefully they honour those that have managed to book.

I so wish there was some in the beginning of February. It's so hard getting flight deals when you have kids in school :cry:

not only from London, but the mistake is being pulled - flight to the UK were less than 90 euro... depending on the route.

My tickets have just gone up from 470 for 2 adults and 1 child to over 1,200 pounds.

If you are on a booking screen, try and book it as soon as possible as i think it will be done any minute now...

Only from London right?

Booked Philly for WWE Royal Rumble..... Just need tickets to the event as it's sold out at the moment!!!

did not find this mistake via here, but i booked it to NYC in April with <2hr connections - 470 return for 2 adults and 1 child with good flying times and the extra 10 pounds for a credit card charge (happy to pay this for the insurance / bonus amex points).

Going for 8 nights, no idea if i will stay in NYC for the entire period as flights to MIA and other places are so cheap with miles (less than 9 pounds return).

Oh no, the one I booked has like a 2 hour connection time. What happens if I miss it due to Air Canada's delay?!

Thanks for this, booked. Fingers crossed.

Check this out - aircanada.com/uk/…tml

I literally JUST make the minimum time so I'm happy. From what I read, If I'm delayed, they'll book me on the next flight if there's space.

Booked Philadelphia for 8th of Jan. Potential to see New York as it's an 1h25min journey on train as well as 18hr layover in Toronto which according to FAQ, Air Canada provides you with hotel, so to see Toronto. Hopefully goes through, thanks OP. :smile:

Wheres me keys? Where my passport?

Was looking at these earlier, some of the connection times are very short, and some fall well short of Air Canada's published minimum connection time so be careful with those.

But, there are plenty of options with some routes so lengthier gaps to be had.

Its Air Canada

These will get cancelled, Virgin never let pricing errors go through

Could only highlight wats available via holiday pirates i am afraid nothing can be guaranteed

So happy to help :thumbsup:

Oh. My. G......!

Just booked a return to LA for 2 week end of Jan 2018 for £200!!!!!!!!

Thank you SOOOOO much OP!

Great price, one of my bucket list locations

Good for someone who wasn't been

Wow, great find, thankyou.
