Airfare to Houston so cheap nowadays

[ee2k]

I don't know if you have noticed, but airfare to Houston from Calgary is at the cheapest level I have ever seen, as low as $319CAD (which is about $225USD.) Other finds include Atlanta at $254USD, Honolulu and Maui at $287USD.

Yup I've noticed!
Just booked Calgary to West Palm Beach (through Houston) $410 CAD after taxes!

I noticed this too. Am going o Houston next week and if I was flexible on my schedule, I could've book for $250 round trip CAD with only 2 weeks notice. I know my wife paid $1,000 last summer with a month's notice... crazy!

I also got a rental car for a week for $140 CAD. Geez

Calgary to Houston is considered a commuter route. It also links most of the Prairies to Mexico and other Caribbean spots.

I fly the route a few times a month and noticed upgrades are easier these days.

I met someone who worked in network planning for United and he mentioned that they consider Calgary to Houston to be an important route for whatever reason. It's the only reason he knew of Calgary. I'm guessing there is/was a lot of oil related business travel and they are trying to offset some of that to keep the planes full.

When I was down in Houston, I met a lot of people who have been to Calgary and every single one of them worked in o&g

One thing about Houston...do not go to Treasures strip club.
They don't get naked and will inflate your tab with mandatory tips on tips on tips. We were charged $10k after one hour and that was for lap dances! With stickers on their nips!!!
