Domestic flights sales - No Taxes!
There is a new sale going on that offers domestic flights for 18 euro one-way, 36 euro roundtrip.
Departure from SKG, RHO, HER, or CHQ to (it seems like) the whole domestic network - via ATH. Use coupon 'sta18' during booking and you pay only the fare without taxes. Books into 'E' class, which earns 500 miles per leg (2000 miles roundtrip). Even for a milage run this is not bad at all (1,8 cents per mile)
Example booking (roundtrip):
So what may be some good routes to book? You'll have to position to any of the mentioned starting points, but most (all?) domestic destinations - except ATH - seem to be available.

This is pretty amazing. I wish I could take advantage of it, but the positioning costs make it pointless.

Hi! Thank you for the information. May I ask where and when does one place the promo code for this offer? I’ve tried a dummy booking till where one has to put his credit card info in but I still see no box for me to place this code.

At the very first page, where you input departure/arrival airports and dates. Bottom right.

So, 6 of these roundtrips and you renew Gold for 216 euro, wow, that's the cheapest I have ever seen...That would be perfect for SKG residents doing weekends at the islands...or for KLouis going anywhere he wants...
This is A3's last call for everyone to re-qualify, lol...
PS. It is posted under "offers and contests", it sounds like a contest? How many of these can you do in a weekend?

You won't believe how happy I am now that I no longer spend one third of my time travelling. I'm finally free to (pretend to) go fishing (n.b.: I do go, but I catch nothing ) whenever I feel like doing so. By the way, in one week from now, on my return flight home, I'll complete my 500th flight with A3!

Btw, this fare would have been nice for your son to requalify for sure, if he was at HER.

Though for residents in any of the promo cities this is a fantastic deal. Not just for the miles (I'm assuming most people couldn't give a hoot about them), but simply for the value of the flights.
I was even thinking to book a one-way to SKG from KLX, to visit some remote areas from there. Hop from one to another, in a way. Unfortunately it doesn't fit well in the missus work schedule otherwise it would have been a great opportunity. If you pick wisely you can still find semi good weather as well

Yes, however...the travel period is limited. So that means multiple trips per week.

I am trying to find a published schedule with the A3 routes for Winter 2017 and Spring/Summer 2018 (if out yet), does anyone have a link for this, by any chance?
