Denver to several cities in Central Mexico like Aguascalientes, Leon/Guanajuato, and San Luis Potosi are on sale from $208rt on Aeromexico for flights in February. United was matching for a while, but looks to have pulled those matches. AA is matching on some routes as well, so keep an eye out for additional matches.

Just paid £384 (so about $640 I think) for DUB-DFW return with US in September. Not amazingly cheap but better than anything else I've seen to go transatlantic booking this far out.

Bookable on US direct (I used the UK site), via Kayak - ITA doesn't seem to find it.

Also works to/from JFK/EWR or combinations. Routing through CLT both ways maximizes cpm without 500 mile elite minimum for PHL-NYC. Good until February 2014.

Is US deliberately pricing these below $250 so people aren't able to use their companion passes?

Thanks OP as I was looking into SFO.

Hi Justtony. You've raised a valid point. I was not aware about the $250 threshold. Good info to know, however. Happy New Year!
