Great find! Hopefully people will get their interview dates in time to take advantage of this special. I always liked travelling by train. :)

I wish I knew when my interview in Montreal was! Last July I took the train with my son to Montreal from London & it cost me over $700! I priced it out now & it would cost just over $200. Why oh why can`t this sale be on longer!!! :angry:

Yeah, it's too bad, but you never know - they might have another sale by the time your appointment comes up. I would suggest adding yourself to their mailing list so you don't miss out.

Another way to save $$$ is to take the train to Toronto, then take a bus the rest of the way. Megabus tickets are under $20 from TO-MTL! Long bus ride, but they have wi-fi.

The train ride, even with the discount is at least $111 per person and the bus is $40 (return). I'll be on the bus :)

Wish i had a interview date to get that 60% off. I'll for sure be adding myself to the email list for updates.. hopefully they will have another sale again soon.

Thanks for the post..:D
