WOW

Just did a quick search on dates for June next year leaving Toronto on 23rd to Gatwick returning on 30th.

With Canada Extra total cost 388 pounds
Canadian Affair total cost exact same dates $986 = 610 pounds

Just looked again. Looks like it is flying with Icelandic air

I just tried to look at prices for Calgary-Gatwick return and keep getting "there are no flights on or around this time"
I tried a couple of different months too!

A bit like Canadian affair, they are just a travel agent and are using Air Atlanta Icelandic to operate the Canada Extra flights with a two class Boeing 747 Jumbo jet.

First class for five hundred notes doesn't sound bad. Do you think you get a flat bed like on BA?

Would have helped if I checked other dates.

Seems they start flying out of Calgary on July 2nd (I think).
