On Sale Now: St. John's to Bogota

Peter Rukavina

I know it’s wrong to make generalizations about international travel and Canadians. But every time Air Canada produces a list of “sample round-trip fares” for one of their seat sales, I find it odd that they seem to pick the most unlikely of city pairs:

Air Canada Sample round-trip fares

I can understand there being a good amount of “Calgary - London, GB” traffic, but how many tickets is Air Canada expecting to sell on the “Saskatoon - Duesseldorf” or “St. John’s - Bogota” runs?

Of course if they left out such seeminly obscure city pairs, you’d probably find me complaining that they were making generalizations about international travel and Canadians, so I suppose they can’t win with me.
