Flights from Calgary to Shanghai, China look to be priced about 30% below their usual bottom today, using a combination of Westjet and China Eastern Airlines through Vancouver.

It looks to have affected every date between January and May 2013. Here's how to find them....

1. Go to https://www.kayak.com/flights/YYC-YVR/2013-05-03/YVR-PVG/2013-05-03/PVG-YYC/2013-05-17

2. Click on 'Change your search' (top left)

3. Enter your dates of travel and hit Find Flights.

Initially the price may show as slightly higher on Kayak (around $850) but when you click through from Kayak to Orbitz, the price will drop to $766 roundtrip after taxes.

(Just to note, this needs to be searched as a multi-city flight for the cheap price to verify on Orbitz, which I've tried to make as easy as possible with the Kayak link in Step 1)

Calgary to Georgetown, Guyana - $511 roundtrip after taxes

This is one for the truly adventurous travelers out there. Most people likely don't even know where Guyana is, much less have it on their travel wish-list. I have a feeling a lot of people might guess that Guyana is in Africa for some reason.
