Edmonton to Eugene, Oregon - $324 roundtrip including taxes
25

This year I've been noticing a bit of a trend from United Airlines. Every now and then they'll temporarily drastically reduce the price on a route from a Canadian city to what I would call a secondary or tertiary U.S. airport.
These are destinations that are not major tourist or business hubs, and historically, never go on sale, and are pretty much always in the mid $500s to low $600s roundtrip, all year round from Canada.
Such is the case today with flights from Edmonton to Eugene, Oregon (EUG) - a city that's about 2.5 hours south of Portland.

If you're into the outdoors, Eugene is about a 2 hour drive from Crater Lake, which is the fifth oldest national park in the U.S., and the deepest lake in the United States (9th deepest in the world). The water in Crater Lake is known for having an amazing blue hue, and really does look like the color in the photo above.
