For those that are comfortable rolling the dice, Flair Air is showing cheap nonstop flights from Vancouver to Palm Springs, California in winter 2023.
Prices start at $117 roundtrip (base fare only). The more realistic price is $237 roundtrip with a piece of carry-on luggage.
For comparison, WestJet and Air Canada are the next cheapest airlines and their flights to Palm Springs are currently a minimum of $670 roundtrip.
Booking with Flair comes with risk. They've been known to drop routes without warning. If a flight is cancelled or delayed they usually don't have an alternative way of getting you to your destination (many routes only have flights 2-3 times a week). This tends to become a larger risk during winter when weather can affect the operations of all airlines.
