Air Canada is offering significant savings on flights to destinations across the country and around the world as part of its Black Friday sale this week.
The sale runs until Nov. 28 and includes discounts up to 20 per cent off on fares departing from Vancouver International Airport. Additionally, customers can get up to 20 per cent off on accommodation and car rentals valid for travel until June 30, 2022.
No promotional code is needed to take advantage of the sale. Simply select the flight, accommodation, or car rental that you are interested in booking and the discount will appear on the final price screen.
While many Canadian airlines are offering Black Friday sales this week, Air Canada offers deals on flights to more remote places around the world. Several highly sought-after global metropolises are available at a steal, too.
For example, you can enjoy a round-trip, direct journey to Tokyo from Vancouver for only only $860.76 CAD including taxes and fees. Typically, direct flights to Japan's capital city cost well over $1000.
