US Airways Dividend Miles (Pre-FlightFund Merger) - Q Fare DCA-SNN $360 incl tax

I just purchased this ticket. Valid Mon-Th Sep and Oct. I have been looking at the fare for my travel dates now and then. Latest was $509 in Q whereas V fares were in $300s before tax.

I think this must be the best roach deal I have ever scored. Business class to Ireland for $360!

Maybe DUB and other euro routes have these favorable Q fares. I missed on similarly priced Q fares to London last fall. They sometimes appear and disappear quickly.

Actually a $350 (excluding fees, taxes, etc.) Q class fare is available for CLT-LGW on USAirways.com. Must be ticketed by Aug. 24 - it's awful tempting.

where did you find this fare? on usairways.com?

thanks

Yes, but I am sure that you can phone in the reservation too. I was actually quite shocked that I managed to ticket a Q fare on the website. It used to revert to the cheapest fare and there's a V fare for $10 less.

I saw some good B fares too. There is a BOS-LGW $524 (pre tax) B fare available.

And B fare means a 10K one-way upgrade which is a fantastic deal.

I always check the B fares - PARTICULARLY for the Carribean where the B fares (upgradable at the time of booking for free by CPs) are usually not too much more than the V, H, and K fares.

For example, with fares WAS-LON, is it possible to purchase a $500 B fare from US and fly UA metal non-stop, which I then can upgrade with UA miles? I suppose not....

Anybody know how upgrade windows to Europe look? The $310 Q fare to LGW is mighty tempting and I would hate to think that it'll be flown back in coach...
