Looking for a flight out of B.C. that won't break the bank?
When it comes to cross-Canada travel, most British Columbians are accustomed to doling out the big bucks. But a few flights from one of the country's discount carriers offer jaw-dropping savings on popular routes out of the Lower Mainland.
Flair Airlines isn't offering a sale right now but several of its regularly-priced flights cost under $100 CAD including all taxes and fees. In fact, some of them cost less than a pair of jeans.
For Metro Vancouverites looking to travel just east of the B.C. border, a flight out of Abbotsford only costs $19 CAD including all taxes and fees. There are several dates available and a return flight costs the same amount.
