Who do you use for flying to Vancouver?

I'm going to visit my Canadian relatives this Summer and would like to know the cheapest airline between Korea and Vancouver.

Singapore air is probably your best bet.

Direct (non-stop) flight, great service, lower cost, nice planes, decent food and seat back entertainment centers.

They are #1 in my book (and there are lots of flights in my books). I will fly them anytime and recommend them to anyone.

EVA Air via Taiwan is less than w600,000 in low season.

JAL via Narita is about W650,000 in low season but includes a room in the Narita Airport hotel for the transfer overnight on the way back. Not a bad deal, really.

Competition for these seats can be fierce. I hear.

Air Canada, Sing and KAL all do non-stops for over a mill. after tax. Can approach 1.4.

United or NWA via San Fran or Asiana/Alaska via Seattle could be good deals, too.

Ditch the wife and go via Manila on Philipine Airlines for about the same price. That's what I'd do.

I second Singapore Air. Direct flight, pleasant staff, convenient departure & arrival times -- always my first choice.

In fact I'm flying with them to Vancouver on monday -- 1 million won taxes incl.

I'm from Vancouver and with all my searching I found that flying into Seattle was much cheaper then flying directly to Vancouver. That is if you have someone who is willing to pick you up.

Couldn't be bothered with that. Messy.


Singapore Air, eh? I'll check that out. Thanks.
