On August 25, Air Canada’s website experienced a glitch and offered a package for 10 flights within Western Canada for only $800 before taxes. Two men from Calgary quickly ordered the deal, and received a receipt and a confirmation number. The next day they tried to book a trip but couldn’t see their purchases on their Air Canada accounts. They called the airline to see what was wrong, but was told that the deal had been made in error; the package was supposed to be $8000, not $800. Air Canada wouldn’t disclose how many packages had been sold, but said that it will honor any bookings that were made before the mistake was caught.
