- Fare feels too good to be true? Don't call the airline!!!!!!
- Double check that the fare is actually in Business or First as some online search engines or OTA's confuse booking classes on some airlines.
- Post as many details as possible about the First / Business fare, including fare class, fare basis, one-way / roundtrip, sales channel, sample dates & total price, including taxes.
- Post the details within the thread itself and not in the post title field as any information typed here cannot be seen by members accessing the thread using mobile devices.
- Refrain from posting fare requests or engaging in off topic debates such as fare trends, specific aircraft configuration or visa requirements
- The deeply discounted international fares discussed here are almost always specific to a certain country of origin, so don't ask if it works in reverse (e.g. a SFO-LHR-SFO fare usually won't work LHR-SFO-LHR). Domestic fares more commonly work in reverse.
- Last, but not least, Don't call the Airline!

For a short time it was bookable for $480 each way on PIA's website in C. While I thought about and tried to figure out if PIA miles could credit anywhere and in a couple of hours it jumped $200.

I am playing with these PK business fares. At least trying to play with it.
Is it me or is the PK website virtually impossible to deal with?
Is there an OTA that does a good job of booking PK fares?

The miles are probably not going to be useful, they do not seem to have any partners. I have read a TR written by someone on Airliners.net who has travelled almost everyone's F and J product and he said with the exception of the alcohol it is actually a pretty good J product especially for the price.

PIA is coming back to ORD, well good for them. They seem to show up for a couple years, leave for a few years then repeat that cycle.

With the *A fares to BCN at somewhere around $1800, I would rather go with that and earn miles (and have a drink).
