Calgary to Maui | $388 roundtrip after taxes! | through winter 2014

Maui, Hawaii

United Airlines looks to have dropped a significant number of their fares between Calgary and Maui, undercutting their closest competition by around 45%. Looking back through the archives, I believe these are the cheapest fares to Maui ever seen from Calgary. And no, this is not a cruel April Fool's joke :)

What's really interesting is that they've dropped not only fall 2013 dates, but winter 2013/2014 dates as well.

A lot of them seem to be fairly decent routes, with 1 stopover each way, typically in Los Angeles or San Francisco.

Here's how to find them...

1..Try a 3 day flexible date search using Kayak around the dates you're interested in, to see what's available.

Here are some example searches in different months..

September - October - November - December - January - February

If you're interested, I would act fast. I saw these appear briefly over the Easter holiday, but didn't even have time to post it before the fares went back up. They were around for literally just hours. There's no telling how long United will keep them down for this time.

One thing to note is that United does have a 'Farelock' feature. For a small fee, when you search for a fare using United's site, you can hold the quoted fare for 72 hours while you decide whether you want the flight or not.

Unfortunately, dates around Christmas do not look to have dropped, as usual.

Note: For anyone having trouble booking on United's site with a Canadian credit card, you may want to try the same dates on Orbitz or Expedia. Or try going through United.ca, as opposed to United.com

NOTE: I have also heard from multiple people that they had trouble booking through United's website using their Mac, and then tried using a different computer and all went well.

UPDATE 1, April 02 - Seeing some fares today for even less, as cheap as $339 roundtrip after taxes. Although those ones appear to have 2 stopovers each way.

UPDATE 2, April 02 - Found some date combinations that are as cheap as $299 roundtrip after taxes! [screenshot]

UPDATE 3, April 02 @ 7:33 PM - The prices on United from Calgary to Maui, NYC, and Miami appear to have gone back to normal.
