Thunder Bay to Barcelona, Venice, Prague | $860 roundtrip after taxes
13
February
Thanks to the contest on KLM, the cities of Barcelona, Prague, and Venice are now on sale from Thunder Bay for around $860 roundtrip after taxes.
Barcelona was clearly the first choice for the public, but both Prague and Venice were selected for the discount as well, since the final tallies for these 2 cities were so close.
The fares have already been loaded into the major search engines, and can also be found on KLM's website. Competing airlines have also lowered their fares to match.
Air Canada
The available dates that have cheap prices vary by airline, but in general, the dates that look to have dropped are mostly concentrated between now and mid May, and dates between October 16 and December 10.
Here are some example searches on Kayak to get you started, but try your own dates. You can also try your dates on the airline's own websites.
Barcelona, Spain (BCN): Feb - Mar - Apr - May - Oct - Nov
Venice, Italy (VCE): Feb - Mar - Apr - May - Oct - Nov
Prague, Czech Republic (PRG): Feb - Mar - Apr - May - Oct - Nov
Also don't forget that KLM offers free stopovers in their main hub city of Amsterdam for however many days you want...
To get a free stopover it's usually easiest to book through the airline's own website, and search for a multi-city flight.
To get a free stopover in Amsterdam on KLM for example, here is what you would do:
1. Go to the KLM page for multi-city booking, found here:
http://www.klm.com/travel/ca_en/apps/ebt/ebt_home.htm?goToPage=home_multiple
2. Enter the following:
Thunder Bay to Amsterdam - departing April 7 (or whatever date you want)
Amsterdam to Prague - departing April 10 (or whatever date you want)
Prague to Thunder Bay - departing April 14 (or whatever date you want)
3. Hit Search. The price should be similar to the regular round-trip fare (perhaps a few dollars more in some cases).
4. Go through the booking process
Even though this sale is only being offered on off-season dates, it's still a very good price relative to what fares normally go for, especially to Prague which is usually a minimum of $1300 from Thunder Bay. Sales of any kind to Europe are very rare from YQT.
KLM has said these fares will be available until February 14th. That's a little vague, since they didn't specify what time on February 14th they would expire. Sale prices on the other airlines will likely expire once KLM puts their fares back up.

Over the past little while, I've had a lot of people ask me about a deal they've seen pop up on a variety of those 'daily deal' type sites (you know the ones, the Groupon-esque clones that were all the rage last year, and initially had some legitimately great deals but have now all turned into a wasteland of spa treatments and massages you can never get an appointment for).

There's a huge fare war to Amsterdam (AMS) going on at the moment. It's extremely rare to see the major airlines drop a price to Europe like this from Thunder Bay.
