The routing rules are quite generous, so you could probably eek out a few more thousand PQM if you tried really hard. Be careful to book a 3-class plane on the long-haul segments ... you can also book into "P" for 2-class BusinessFirst using this fare, which is quite a bit less exciting (but still not a terrible deal).
Tons available from BOS still ... and every other market as far as I can tell.
For what it's worth, I don't mind blogs picking up this one too terribly much ... it's a fare sale/war rather than a mistake. As a note, both the AA and the UA fares have a ticketing deadline of Dec. 17 ... I expect them to be gone well before that, but that'll be the absolute last day to take advantage.

BTW, I also saw this fare to domestic destinations within Japan, albeit for about 300-400 USD more.

For UA, the booking code is what matters. In this case, these book into "A" for Global First Class. "A" earns 150% PQM and 250% RDM. The routing I constructed above is 16,992 miles which earns 25,448 PQM and 42,480 RDM (plus another 16,992 RDM if you're 1K).

OOPS I made an error my flights booked into A, they showed P on ITA but when booking on UA.com they booked into A
However they say the tickets are not refundable.

MIA-PVG use 20% off certs.
hey a reminder to people the 20% off certs from the MIA-PVG $3000 fare works and saves just under $500.
