LAX-SFO-CLE-MCI RT, $188.80 ai; 6712 mi (with 500mi minimums) - 2.81cpm.

Fantastic rate; but I think a positioning flight for me from MSY to MCI is going to make this unattractive for me.

Works starting from MCI too.

It's a low enough price that tacking on a positioning flight doesn't necessarily kill this from being a 5cpm deal.

Wow! Don't seem to find it, though. You got any dates?

Never mind: found it now: May

I can't find it anywhere. Is it gone?

UAL1200

It's gone, but SNA-MCI can be had for $188++. Availability is tough though, been searching for dates and no luck.

Need to get MR-ing again, the S.O. is starting to bother me about it.

It's back

elcid3

I'm finding it on ITA but can't get it on Co.com or united.com. has anyone been able to book it?

uaflr

i have the same problem - best i got was $285 on Orbitz

.bomb was as much as $986

both UA & CO booking sites are very screwy!!

sure glad their pilots aren't as messed up as their computer systems are!!

Look on the co website, W/ flex dates (0 night stay).

Booked on UA.com. Unfortunately I couldn't use the eCert, but for such a low price... Gotta take a day off work, but that's OK. Gonna be a lot of flying. Got a MR ONT-BOS on 5/5 and then this one on 5/7-5/8

Thanks to the OP and pigx5!
