US Airways Dividend Miles - continued US price wackiness

Well, after stalling and stalling, my client finally wants me to fly down to Charlotte next Thursday for a meeting. OK.

My only option is to take the 7:00 pm out of DCA since I'm tied up until about 5:00 Thursday. When I checked this morning, coach was availabe for $481. Now....no longer. Its $694 down there.

But....I can buy F class for $555.....

Wonder which one I should do. :D

I assume F is a restricted fare?

Yes, its A class . LOL, I looked at the refundable coach. Its M class. Not even instantly upgradeable!

+1 - US very often sells restricted F at below fully refundable/changeable Y.

No brainer to me, I usually travel on thier restricted F tickets, I get FC and class bounse... Most of my flight are longer then 3.5 hrs so I get a meal too..

I once had the disapleasure of sitting next to a US Airways' pricing analyst on a PHX - LAX flight and she was one of the most unintelligent individuals I have met, so I'm not surprised.

Or maybe she didn't want to talk to you....
