Shoot, if you find a PE fare at 6c/mile, post it in MR deals, not here. I would be very surprised (depending on the PE product, obviously) to find anyone that would not pay a healthy premium for a PE fare over a Y fare. My vote is at least 2 cpm more than the Y 4 cpm rule. Just MHO.

Su cdg jfk $942

Now that's a real low price. Multiple dates in Jan-Feb. Same seats as AF on the long haul but no idea of the service. The short haul is 4 hours in regular Y though it seems. Any reviews? That should come around 7.5 cpm...

Actually, it appears that you have to depart in March but you can stay up to 12 months. There is a $50 surcharge each way if you fly on Fri-Sun.
Cancel/rebook fee is very little - only $50.
Books into E fare.

Given that it is a carrier with a PE cabin and it goes via CDG, one would guess AF. However, when searching for it on ITA I actually found some non-stops on TK in PE (Comfort) for 1599 ai

I'm seeing 1125-1250 ai r/t for BA (and some VS) ex-DUB/FCO/MXP to major cities in US/Canada. Appears to be good thru Sept. Obviously just the long-haul segment in PE, the rest in Y.

Hmmm. ORD-DOH, via LHR & BAH, T fare, on BA, $1859. Various dates in Feb & early March. T will earn 1.5x on AA as well. 14,385 miles basis, so ~$0.13cpm before bonus calculations/considerations. With class of service bonuses of 50% that drops it to ~$0.09/mile overall. Connections aren't too bad either.

BA T fare earns 10% COS bonus miles with AA, not 50%.

Ah, you're right. My mistake - was looking at two different things at once and got that bit wrong. Still, not too shabby for PE, although not spectacular.
