Sample Dates: May 17 - May 22. Available throughout May and June.

The return seems to have a layover in SEA.

Seeing just over $1K at ITA for the lowest fare on the dates above. Where did you see the $517 RT? Thanks.

JFK - SEA - KIX - HND : KIX - HND = NH
HND - KIX - SEA - JFK : HND - KIX = JL

Other dates seem to use UA for a slightly higher price.

It's still there for Delta. Does this trip earn miles?

Also, the one I pulled was $499 but there is a sorta, kinda open jaw at one point where you land at ITM at 12:30 yet depart from KIX at 5:30. I will assume there is a train.

I'm not seeing any UA so far but there seem to be several dates available in the 499-546 range for DL.

NH would credit to UA but how is NH flying SEA-KIX?? They don't fly out of SEA (yet).

Ah, i see. The, "Other dates seem to use UA for a slightly higher price." was for the KIX/HND leg.

Great fare regardless.

Has anyone successfully booked this? Tried to on Vayama but it wouldn't let me get past the flight selection.

Edit: My mistake, was using incorrect dates.

I was still debating with myself whether or not to book. I need to get off my duff and start traveling again, but for personal reasons I have been hesitant. So I didn't go all the way through to the final booking page. Vayama is also where I am searching. Would prefer to book on Delta where I have much voucher to use but I can't (yet?) make the fare come up there.

UPDATE: Yes, I am now on the page where they ask for final payment. Here is the bait and switch. The price has been raised from $499 to...wait for it...$517. I really should go ahead and take this trip but am not sure yet for personal reasons that I will go through it. But I'm definitely well past flight selection...There are lots more dates than just May 17-May 22. If you like a longer trip, I am trying May 24-Jun 5. There are others.
