Default Major Sell-offs from Canada

For anybody interested, there are some dandy sell-offs to the DR from toronto listed this week. For example, Toronto to POP, Paradise Beach Club or Interclub Fun Royal, Departing Sept. 23, 1 week A-I, $449CD. I haven't seen it much cheaper than that, even in september. (No, i'm not a travel agent spamming the board, I just thought people might want to hear about a good deal!)

Default C3000 Misleads You Though

Canada 3000 was and is advertising October through December departures to Santo Domingo for $619 air only CDN, and $589 to La Romana.

When I called them it turns out the Santo Domingo flights are all to La Romana and you then have to get to SDQ yourself.

Why they then charge more for the same plane to the same airport is a mystery. At least the difference would pay part of your taxi. When I asked them they could not explain, but actual SDQ flights for real are not until November. The oddest marketing scheme I have seen for a while.

Default Not QUITE true, False, actually

Go there and try to find Toronto to Santo Domingo October at all-the first dates are in fact November 4,11,18th.

Thus a newspaper ad by C3000and my subsequent call right to them, which says a) Ocotber 6th and b) Santo Domingo is hooey, and they have the nerve to then charge more and you wind up in La Romana instead.

Nonsense.

Hey! look at this! La Romana is available for even less than the ad on the 6th and 7th. $569/$613 on the 6th, $469 on the 7th. BTW the two flights on the 6th at 2 DIFFERENT prices? Same flight, same airline. Oops.

Hey, it was your web site.

Default Sun Holidays is great!

I've used them before, and most really cheap all inclusive package deals are out of Toronto to POP; only stoping in La Romana on the way down, but direct POP to Toronto on the way back. Really, really good deals for this weekend and next!

They seem to be quite a good outfit for sales. Still they won't make C3000 appear out of nowhere in SDQ on the 6th.
