Toronto to Portugal, London, or Paris - $113 to $223 CAD roundtrip including taxes

Lisbon, Portugal

Air Transat is showing flights from Toronto (YTZ) to Lisbon, Portugal (LIS) for as low as $113 CAD roundtrip including taxes.

And flights to London Gatwick (LGW), UK for $223 CAD roundtrip.

They are showing up as an 'Eco Budget' price on Air Transat's own website.

The price does not include checked bags.

The flights have a layover in Montreal each way.

It's likely these are a mistake, so don't book anything else until it becomes clear one way or the other if these will be honoured.

You may recall that back in April of this year Air Transat had some mistake fares to Rome, Italy for $178 CAD roundtrip. Air Transat did honour these.

Update @ 4 PM EST - As expected, it looks like the Air Transat website is struggling from the traffic. And so is YYZ Deals.

Update @ 5 PM EST - Deal is still live and is still showing up on the Air Transat website. It looks like these are also working for Paris (CDG).

Update @ 6 PM EST - Most are now just getting timeout errors (504 gateway) on the Air Transat website. Still a few recent reports of successful bookings in the comments below, but it's not always clear as to what time they booked. Successful reports as recent as 6:06 and 6:15 PM.

Update @ 6:28 PM EST - All searches are now coming up with 'There are no flights available for your dates' which is likely the sign that this is over.

Update @ 6:45 PM EST - YTZ airport has been removed from Air Transat's search engine altogether. So it's definitely over now.

Update Oct 13th @ 1 PM EST - Unfortunately, unlike last time, it looks like this time Air Transat has decided not to honour these fares and has been issuing cancellation e-mails this morning. They are claiming it is due to the fact that their 'partnership with Porter has not been finalized'.

However, if you try a search like this one on Google Flights one can clearly see that the Porter / Air Transat tickets are being sold through a variety of different agencies. (Air Transat and Porter initiated their code-sharing agreement back in March).



Update Oct 13th @ 3:30 PM EST - From the comments below: Just got off the phone with an Air Transat rep who told me that I would be receiving a phone call from a specialty rep to discuss my options re: the cancellation. They will work to find an "alternate solution".

You may want to prepare by reading about what your rights are on the Canadian Transportation Agency website - including the sections regarding alternate travel arrangements and compensation for delay or cancellations.

One suggestion would be that they put you on a flight departing from YYZ (Air Transat has nonstop flights from YYZ to Lisbon and London).

YYZ to Lisbon: Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Lisbon to YYZ: Wednesdays and Sundays.

YYZ to London: Daily
London to YYZ: Daily
