KLM asking people to vote on which city they should put on sale
11
June
UPDATE:
So, KLM has narrowed it down to two finalists, Amsterdam and Istanbul. They've introduced a 'second round', where the voting essentially starts over.
Please vote Istanbul, a chance for a price like this may never be seen again. If Istanbul gets the most Likes and Comments, they will be putting it on sale for $749.
All you need to go is go to KLM Canada's Facebook page and hit Like under the picture of Istanbul and make a Comment.
*Important* - Make sure you're hitting Like and leaving a comment for the correct destination! Istanbul is the second picture, you may need to scroll down to see it.
Their Facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/KLMCanada
Thanks,

KLM is doing something pretty interesting (for an airline), and asking Canadians to vote on which city they would like to see go on sale for 48 hours.
Whichever city gets the most votes will be put on sale for $749 roundtrip after taxes from Calgary. To some of these cities this would be an excellent price, a price that Calgary has never seen.
The cities you can choose from are:
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Barcelona, Spain
Bucharest, Romania
Dublin, Ireland
Istanbul, Turkey
Now I don't want to influence the voting (Ok, maybe I do) but I *really* think you should vote for somewhere other than Amsterdam.
Western Canada sees the occasional great price to Amsterdam on Air Transat from time to time, and has even seen prices in the $500s (roundtrip after taxes).
Cities like Istanbul, Turkey on the other hand, will *never* see a great price like this, so it's a very rare opportunity to get there cheaply.
Ok, full disclosure, I've always wanted to go to Turkey, so if you can't make a decision about which city you'd like to vote for, or as a personal favor to me, please vote Istanbul. :)
To vote, go to http://www.facebook.com/KLMCanada - you will need to Like their Facebook page to vote.

Huge fare war from Calgary to Amsterdam - $616 roundtrip after taxes - affecting fares up to May 2012
31
October
There's a huge fare war to Amsterdam (AMS) going on at the moment. You do see the occasional charter flight on Air Transat to Amsterdam that drops down to this level, but it's extremely rare to see nearly all the major airlines drop a price to Europe like this that affects such a large range of dates.

Good June 2012 deal to Scandanavia - Into Norway and out of Sweden - $865 roundtrip after taxes
13
October
There's a few reasons I like this deal. For starters, it involves 2 Scandinavian countries that rarely ever seem to budge from their expensive price tags.. It's also in June 2012, and it's pretty rare to see a deal to anywhere in Europe this far ahead of departure.
