There are a number of exceptional cruise deals available at the moment. NCL is selling off some 3 or 4 days cruises on the Sky for $99 plus fees. Remember that there is also the $10 to $11 per day in tips to add on as well as taxes and fuel supplements.

Quick deal. Vancouver to Los Angeles for just $399 for a one week cruise. Great deal if you live in LA or Vancouver. But Princess is actually selling airfare at at a discount as well!

WestJet and SouthWest have announced a partnership to fly to International destinations. Flights are set to take off in late 2009.
American Airlines announced today that as of the 15th of June they will begin charging for the 1st piece of luggage. The charge is $15 for the first piece. Delta has already said that they will not be charging.
Interesting question... when they are charging you for the service, should the liability be higher? Shouldn't you get a refund of the service charge as well as a higher liability when they lose your luggage?
For the moment, unless AA is $15 cheaper for a flight... I suggest booking with another airline. It's hard enough to fly and having to check luggage so you can bring toothpaste with you, but now it's $15 to take a tube of toothpaste in the hold.
Following in the footsteps of Air Canada, WestJet has added a fuel surcharge of $20, $30 or $45 to short, medium and long-range flights. As I have said before having surcharges is misleading to the customer and should be a temporary measure with all future tickets having the charge included in the price of the fare. A seperate fuel surcharge is deceptive and frankly when you enter into a contract for a service, the price should not be subject to change.
The last large holdout in Canada is now Porter.
