^ Yes we all know but it's still cheap. It quite worth it. Vegas itself right now is about 140-230 one way.

It's cheaper in a sense to get round trip tickets instead of one way. I believe Cathay has round trip tickets from YVR-HKG-YVR for $1,255 plus taxes and fees. Same with YVR. It only benefits people who are just going back there for a while.
