Works in reverse. I see availability through Summer (as far as I looked)

Sample 1/31-2/1: SAN/MMH/SFO/BOS/SFO/MMH/SAN = 6480 miles, 3.7cpm

I meant to post this fare earlier this week. I got same routing but only booked one way for $117 each way

Awesome. UA seems to be showing lots of LOVE to FLL & SAN.

I wonder if SAN/BOS has anything to do with AS entering the market? I used the fare as a positioning flight for the AS SAN-BOS inaugural. I got back the 13K miles i had spent on my previous positioning flight

I do see a Delta match for $240ish works out to around 4cpm limited to Mon-Wed pretty well in Jan-Mar to PVD via one or two connections.

Perhaps, but there have been deals like this to SAN for awhile now. I'm glad AS is expanding here it's nice to have a non-stop option to earn AA EQM/RDMs. Do you know with this addition where BOS ranks in the AS system? I think DCA maybe the largest station on the East Coast, but we'll have PDX (1x), SEA (1x; 2x seasonally); SAN (1x) that's pretty impressive. I think AS is in a unique position with their aircraft utilization in SEA and SAN with 738s coming in from AK & HI they can easily be staged for a transcon like this. Of course having their ground handling performed by DL doesn't hurt either. Personally I'd like to see the seasonal SEA flight become yearound or better yet have an afternoon SEA departure and RON in BOS for a morning flight.

ZFV-EWR-SAN-EWR-ZFV for $141.60 all-in for 5,850 miles (2.4¢ per CPM with 500-mile minimum) is showing for a lot of dates beginning in January. Fare code GA7FS. Plenty of dates going out even in the summer where same day turns are available, even on the weekends.

Love this! I am 'visiting' my family in Philly now.

Note that the EWR-ZFV Amtrak leg earns no EQM, just 250 RDM each way, so that's 2.63 CPM on redeemable, 2.90 CPM on EQM.

Still though, this is a pretty amazing fare, and there's *tons* of date availability. Lot's of red-eye SAN-EWR + explore Philadelphia + fly back to SAN in late afternoon opportunities. Just booked two of these myself.

Of course this time of year there's all sorts of irrops risk.... but at least it's a direct SAN-EWR leg.

AeroWesty

Thanks for the correction on the ZFV legs. I've noted that in my list of MR ideas so I don't make the same mistake again.

matkusopet

woohoo! it's like a shopping spree tonight 3 booked so far...thanks, all!

I've gone through the entire CO thread about ZFV, but have no found no definitive answer for the "Can I pick up my ZFV tix from NYP or EWR and not have to take the ZFV-EWR leg?" question.

Is there a definitive answer? Don't want to bring this up, but I'll have 24 hours to cancel my bookings if I end up having to go to ZFV to print the tickets or risk UA canceling my onward tix...

DeErEtYn

Yea, I'd like to know this too...
I have booked my return ticket as a separate oneway.
Can anyone confirm that you can pick up ZFV ticket at NY Penn Station and not take the ZFW-EWR train?
