$325 -- AirTran fare sale in the US
Seattle to points across the US for $325 return. The beauty of this sale is that fares are valid through November 12th, although they must be purchased by April 8.
$170 -- Sunwing Canada Summer Flight Sale
One-way fares valid mid-May thru October
Vancouver to Toronto or Montreal $170
Book by Mar 31 for these special prices
$399-$469 -- Fly to the UK this Spring
Vancouver to London, Gatwick $399
Vancouver to Manchester $469
$1839 -- Business Class Seattle to London
I don't usually highlight Business Class because most people I know look for cheap flights. But, London is a long flight, and in peak summer it will cost at least half this price for coach airfare. So, this one might be worth the splurge. Plus there is a 15% discount on some hotels in London. Another perk here - it's good for a maximum stay of 11 months, not the 3 months of cheap coach fares.
US$1099 -- Brazil: 2-City Beach Getaway from NYC or Miami
Half of this stay is at an almost-all-inclusive resort. Dates available for most of 2008. For slightly more, you can depart from other cities or extend your stay beyond 6 nights.

Bookit.com is sweetening the deal, which is already great for an all-suite hotel, with American Express gift cards and $100 or $200 flight credits.
