Edmonton to Shanghai or Beijing, China - $821 roundtrip after taxes
29
September
It looks like some of United's November flights from Edmonton to Shanghai and Beijing, China have temporarily dropped to $821 roundtrip after taxes. They're currently about 30% cheaper than the closest competition.
It's not an advertised sale, so it's impossible to say how long it will last. United does have a 'Farelock' option where you can book now and then have 72 hours to decide if you want to go through with it or not.
Here are some example searches on Kayak. Change it to Beijing once you get to Kayak if you'd like to look for flights to Beijing instead of Shanghai. Click through to United to book.
If you have trouble booking on United.com with a Canadian credit card, try searching on United.ca with the same dates.
