Halifax to Dublin, Ireland - $600 roundtrip including taxes | Summer 2014
22
November
By now you have probably heard that WestJet is going to be flying to their first European destination - Dublin, Ireland, starting in the summer of 2014.
I've been watching these fares with great interest, because it's often the case that when an airline starts a new route, they offer some attractive prices to generate interest and fill up the plane.
Well today could be the day to strike! There seems to be some excellent prices on certain date combinations, leading to roundtrip prices that are over 50% cheaper than the closest competition! What's even more amazing is that they are during the peak summer travel period.
Here's the cheapest prices, by airline, for any date combination in June on flights from Halifax to Ireland:
As you can see, WestJet's prices stick out like a sore thumb.
To find and book the cheap Halifax - Dublin flights, here's what you can do:
1. Go to www.westjet.com
2. Search for a flight from Halifax (YHZ) to Dublin (DUB). You need to pick dates between June 15 and October 5, 2014, as these are seasonal flights, and WestJet is only operating them in these months.
Here are the cheapest dates I've seen:
Halifax to Dublin:
June 18, 24,25
July 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, 30
August 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, 20, 26, 27
Sep 2, 3
Dublin to Halifax
June 24, 25
July 9, 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, 30,
Aug 6, 19, 26, 27
Sep 2, 3, 9, 10, 16, 17, 23, 24, 30
Oct 2
So pick a date combination from above, and you should be able to find a flight in the $600 range, roundtrip, including taxes.
Here's July 1 to July 9 for example, with the verified price on WestJet.com:
It's always tough to say how long an airline will offer a really crazy price cut like this, as it's up to them as to how many seats they want to offer at such a price, and for how long.
But one thing is for sure, if you're looking to go to Europe this summer, the odds of finding something cheaper than this from Halifax are pretty slim!

A rare event, good deals within Canada thanks to a perfect storm on Westjet

Prices within Canada are stupid. Everybody knows that. Westjet and Air Canada jack up the prices and then offer promo codes to try and convince people there are deals to be had, but the price hasn't actually budged.

Incredible, an Air Canada sale that really is a sale

Update: Westjet looks to have just matched the Air Canada sale. Today looks to be an amazing day for inter-Canada travel prices.
Westjet doesn't seem to have an official page up yet about their sale, they're probably scrambling to get their prices changed to match Air Canada.
