The below is from our moderator (taken from the first post of the thread - bolding is mine). Feel free to add more if necessary / as needed.

Happy 2014!

Please use this thread to post or to follow Economy Fares which are 'Good Deals' but where the cost per mile is more than 3-4 cents per mile, which is the usual upper limit for what is considered a true 'MR Deal'.

A few requests for posting in the thread:

-members posting their deals please post the city pairs/airport codes and pricing in the body of the post and not just in the post title as it isn't visible for those reading it on mobile devices (ETA: ...or in email alerts)

Price war going on between PHX and DEN that involves the usual suspects but I really think Spirit airlines is at the heart of the battle. You can find $88 round trips on USAIR/AA

DL is at 242 for the same dates.

This fare is actually widely available especially through February. I'm doing a weekend at the start of March. Great fare.

US: PHL to LAS (rt) $214

Example date: March 28th to 29th (lots of different availability)

About 4.9 cpm and in general a great price for a 4.5-5.5 hour flight.

I posted this in another thread, but basically any major airport in Florida to Seattle is <$300 rt for the next few months on DL, UA, and US. Lowest ive seen is $260. It doesnt matter if its a same say turnaround or a 1 wk trip.
