Toronto to Bangkok, Thailand - $934 roundtrip after taxes on Japan Airlines
3
September
Japan Airlines is currently showing some fares from Toronto (YYZ) to Bangkok, Thailand (BKK) for as cheap as $934 roundtrip after taxes.
This fare drop made me sit up and take notice for a few reasons...
1) They are the cheapest flights from Toronto to Thailand that I've ever blogged about.
2) The flights (which are on Japan Airlines) are cheaper than their next closest competitor by over 20%.
3) Japan Airlines is a more than decent airline that gets 4 stars over at airlinequality.com.
Typically the cheapest flights to Thailand are on Delta or United, both of which are just your standard 3-star U.S. based airline. These flights on JAL which is definitely a step up from either of those.
From what I've seen, the available cheap dates are sporadic, falling between September 2013 and January 2014.
Here are some example searches to get you started:

Oct 16 to Oct 30 - https://www.kayak.com/flights#/YYZ-BKK/2013-10-16/2013-10-30
Nov 3, 4, 5, or 6 to Nov 8 - https://www.kayak.com/flights/#/YYZ-BKK/2013-11-06-flexible/2013-11-20-flexible
Nov 13 to Nov 27 - https://www.kayak.com/flights/#/YYZ-BKK/2013-11-13-flexible/2013-11-27-flexible
Jan 08 to Jan 22 - https://www.kayak.com/flights/#/YYZ-BKK/2014-01-08-flexible/2014-01-22-flexible
I've found that to book the flights, you'll probably want to click through from Kayak to Flight Network. I've had the most success with the displayed price verifying on Flight Network for these flights. It seems to jump up a bit when clicking through to Expedia.

UPDATE 1 - Japan Airlines prices have gone back up, but now United Airlines seems to have responded by offering flights for $920 roundtrip after taxes, on dates all the way up to February 2014.

Update @ 5:23 PM : Delta seems to have caught on and the price is now back up unfortunately. There were reports that the reverse was working for a while as well (out of a Canadian city, back into a U.S. city). Could still be worth trying.

$1246 roundtrip after tax from Toronto to Bangkok, Thailand wouldn't be an unusually notable price at any other time of the year. It would be a decent price, but not post-worthy.
