Airlines of India - Is there any website that can help me find decent J and F fares ex-BOM?

In the Premium Fares thread on the mileage runs forum I noticed BOM-ORD on EY for around $2000 one way. Is this a good fare? Is there an India specific website I can use to compare this fare with other ex-India premium fares?

ExpertFlyer.
It's not India-specific, but it'll provide you the full menu of fares in all classes, on all carriers, from any major airport to anywhere else (you have to surf the anywhere elses individually).

cleartrip.com is a good bet
One-way? Those EY fares should be ~ US$2k roundtrip, no?

Gleff--I think the OP was looking for premium cabin fares. I don't think $2K roundtrip fares in J are going to be easy to come by.

there were some EY r/t's posted earlier in that thread for around 1 lakh INR (which is where the $2K figure I coming from, I think).

the deal is still available ex-HYD. About 65K INR for one-way HYD-NYC/ORD.

Those fares in question were indeed round-trip for circa $2k.

Tried ITA?

Damn, and here I was feeling so good about a $2800 r/t J fare recently! :o
Another good site I have found for India fares (all classes) is www.makemytrip.com. Some good deals to be found there.

That's a good one too. ^
There have been some great premium class deals ex India over the last year. Even BA had a limited time sale a few months back where I got DEL-US-DEL (via LHR) for approx $3.6k in F the whole way!!

I booked a 9W fare ex BOM to New York for my dad recently for that amount. Of course, with their taxes and "fees", the price increased by about 20,000 rupees... :(

However, nowadays one sees 1.60 lakhs...
