AA: BOS-PVG $491 ai OW

I'm seeing some availability in October (I looked 19th-22nd specifically). With a stopover in LAX, I'm getting 2.7cpm—great deal. You have to travel by November 15th, book by June 25th.

There are some other good fares in the lower $500 range from JFK, LGA.

Dooooooooooooooooooh. OW fair, not AI. Jumping on deals with little sleep isn't the best recipe. Sorry.

Very good fares. Note that this $491 is for outbound. Return ow is $516. Don't forget visa fees which is $140 plus special handling.

Same fare applies to BOS-xORD-PVG.

491 is the one way price.

Do you mean 491 EACH WAY?

Sorry guys, my bad. When I confirmed on the .com, I failed to notice that I had booked a one way fare. I priced it down to $1006 RT, not such a good deal.

Appears to require a 5-day stay for lowest fares however?

Really? ~$1000 for US east coast-Asia. Yea not bad but nothing spectacular. I've looked at some of AA's Fall "Deals" and really don't see much worth noting. A lot of UA east coast - Europe for $800-1000 in the Fall. I don't know maybe I'm living in the past but I thought good Sept-Feb/Mar fares in these markets were in the $500-700 range.
