Published on December 3, 2025

Vancouver travellers have an exciting opportunity to take advantage of extensive flight discounts, thanks to both Air Canada and WestJet. Following the busy Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotions, both airlines have launched significant sales offering substantial reductions on base fares for a wide range of destinations. Whether planning a trip to Canada, the U.S., Europe, Asia, or even further afield to South America and the Caribbean, these discounts make international travel more affordable than ever. Passengers flying out of Vancouver International Airport (YVR) can benefit from deals extending well into June 2026, making these promotions perfect for those looking to plan ahead.

WestJet’s Sale: Big Savings on Sunny Destinations

WestJet is leading the charge with an exciting sale offering up to 25% off on select base fares to more than 50 destinations. This deal covers a range of destinations, including the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America, and applies to travel between December 15, 2025, and June 24, 2026. The discount also includes regional flights within Canada, the United States, and even to tropical sunny destinations. However, business class bookings are excluded from this offer.

The deal offers a breakdown of savings by region:

• Canada, U.S., Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America: 25% off select base fares.
• Europe and Asia: A slightly lower 20% discount on select base fares.

For passengers planning to book tickets for travel in 2025, there are some blackout dates to be aware of. These dates include the busy holiday period, such as December 19-22, 26-30 and various dates throughout 2026, including Jan. 2-5, Feb. 13-16, March 13-16, and April 3-6, among others. Travellers are advised to check for specific flight availability and discounted fares through WestJet’s online price calendar, where lower fares are clearly marked with a yellow tag.

To access these savings, tickets must be booked by December 2, 2025, at 10:59 p.m., and the promo code “TRAVELT” must be applied during the booking process. This deadline is critical to ensure the discounts are applied to the booking.

Air Canada’s Discounts: Affordable Flights to the U.S. and Mexico

Air Canada is also offering an attractive sale on flights to Canada, Mexico, and the U.S., with discounts of up to 25% on select base fares. This offer is available for travel between December 9, 2025, and May 31, 2026, and covers a broad range of destinations. Like WestJet, Air Canada’s sale is available for multiple flight classes, with some exclusions for business class.

Specific blackout dates are listed for the 2025 and 2026 holiday seasons, including December 19-23, December 26-30, January 1-6, and other popular travel periods throughout the year.

The offer applies to bookings made in Economy, Premium Economy, and Business class, excluding Economy Basic fare.

To benefit from this international discount, the $50 reduction is split across the two directions of a round-trip flight, with $25 off each direction. This offer must also be booked by December 2, 2025, at 11:59 p.m., using the promo code “TueSaveInt”.

Booking Tips and Price Fluctuations

As with all flight deals, travellers are advised to act quickly, as flight prices can fluctuate depending on availability. To lock in a specific price, it is recommended to make the booking as soon as possible. While some airlines allow passengers to hold seats temporarily, these holds are not always guaranteed. It is essential to confirm bookings promptly to secure the discounted price.

Both Air Canada and WestJet have online tools that make it easier to track and find the best deals, including price calendars and interactive search features. Passengers are encouraged to make use of these tools to ensure they are getting the best possible rate.
