Just to clarify this point. "FOR ONE WAY FARES" is often listed in fare rules to allow easier construction with other fares. The price in the fare rule itself does indeed apply to a one-way fare. However, most people (especially frequent posters like CokeandTaco) will post the correct all-in round trip fare (twice the fare rule plus fees). $170ish all-in is correct. Fare GAP10KS is actually only $58.60 in the fine print.

Have found that this one does work in reverse, as well, and just booked for January ex-LAX for a bit more. Routed through IAH and CLE on the outbound and just IAH on the return. Decided to stay 2 nights and make a trip to Mammoth Cave, as we've wanted to do that for years.

Excellent find. Thanks!
Same day turns available, with less lucrative routing options. Example: 2/2/13: SMF-DEN-SDF-DEN-SMF; dep. 5:40a, return 9:04p. $170 ai, 4.4 cpm.

you the man C&T.
i'm in for 3/16 exSMF @ $169 via ORD. if anyone else is flying PM me.
edit: also good for SAN on certain dates. SAN-IAD-SDF-IAD-SAN for $214ai (3.8cpm). sample date march 5-6 with overnight at SDF.
there are a lot of G fares out there in certain markets all the sudden. it's a matter of finding the ones that string together with favorable connections as above.
