> I scored a non-stop Air Canada flight in Executive First, from Sydney to Vancouver for only $1,200

Excuse the french, but how the fuck did you do that?

If I could travel SYD-YVR first class for $1200 I'd probably go every couple of months if not more.

Well, AC Executive First is really business class, not first class. Still an excellent deal but it's not first.

This is pretty useless article, because:

>But how did he do it? Well, we can't give too much away

The main reason I read the article was that I wanted to know how those flights were so cheap, but it appears to be a secret other than from vague explanation of "be flexible".

No mention of the possibility of a return flight for remotely the same price. At least none that I found. I find it very difficult to read that style of writing.

"how did we do it?" - First let us tell you about this "how did we do it?" - We can't give everything away "how did we do it?" - Here are some other great results we claim to achieve "how did we do it?" - It's completely worth this incredibly high finder's fee
