Nice deal but not that great from a CPM standpoint. belfordrocks Aug 23, 11, 5:55 am If EWR/LGA/JFK/HPN all prices the same from a fare basis standpoint, couldn't one do something like JFK/LGA/EWR/HPN-IAD-SMF or something similar? LGA-IAD-LAX-SMF possible? And e-certs etc. generally aren't factored into the cpm equation. Adam1222 Aug 23, 11, 6:01 am certainly not a MR deal, and please stop shouting :) Also, you've posted the same "deal" here and in MR Discussions. Not allowed. Welcome to FT, but please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the sticky at the top of the forum. aacharya Aug 24, 11, 8:40 am If EWR/LGA/JFK/HPN all prices the same from a fare basis standpoint, couldn't one do something like JFK/LGA/EWR/HPN-IAD-SMF or something similar? LGA-IAD-LAX-SMF possible? And e-certs etc. generally aren't factored into the cpm equation. EWR/JFK/HPN/LGA certainly do not price the same. However, what you indicate below does work. Mainly LGA/JFK-IAD-SFO/LAX-MRY, for example. (Which is already an open thread on MR) mikelat Aug 24, 11, 6:56 pm Just from a quick check you're at 4.92CPM before taxes. Seems slightly interesting but very dependent on taxes. Not familiar with CO taxes but even $50 additional puts you at nearly 6CPM. Not a great deal there.

Not familiar with CO taxes but even $50 additional puts you at nearly 6CPM. Not a great deal there. CO taxes are just like any other. Since it's a rather small difference relative to the eCert being applied, I believe that UA's at least cut down on your base fare (thereby reducing your taxes). craz Aug 25, 11, 10:15 am at times I find JFK-LAX-SFO-ONT-SFO-LAX-JFK or JFK-IAD-SFO-ONT-SFO-IAD-JFK will be $298-338 and yield 6800+ a good use for a $300 ecert or even a $250 but many combos with JFK-ONT via SFO yields over 6100 , only prob is UA CXed a few of their SFO-ONT-SFO flights, but I stay the weekend anyway so it doesnt really impact me but might make an immediate turn hard. then again theres tons of what I consider cheap hotels by ONT so a great way to pick up a hotel credit staying the night |
