AA: ORD-DFW-PEK $610 RT 3.9cpm

Found a good deal to PEK as the title says. I haven't tried any other routings. Also, the DFW-PEK segment is on the 787

The deal is good for travel from Oct 15-31st, but it expires tomorrow according to the fare rules, so book quickly.

edit: ord-clt-dfw-pek and back nets 16970 miles for $611 which is 3.6cpm. This requires an extra day on the outbound and inbound though.

Great if you are in ORD area but for those of us not still have to get ORD to get that price so I did HOME-DFW-LAX-DFW-PEK-DFW-HOME for $838 Leave out 8pm 10/16 back 10pm 10/18. On the 767 from DFW-LAX-DFW so should get the upgrade and sleep Miles 17438 be careful on the 10/24 to 10/25 run turnaround shows 1:35 instead of the 2:10 on the prior week

Interesting routing. You could also use Avios points to position yourself to ORD and pay the lower cost.

This has been posted for a while. The fare comes and goes. Im doing one of these in September. For those that are looking in the midwest, check your home airport, as they are nearly this cheap from places like IAH, MCI, STL as well.

And as someone else pointed out, its a problem to reposition. I am DFW based but will be in ORD to start this trip in September, but sadly will go HKG-DFW-ORD-DFW (Im doing an open Jaw ORD-PEK/HKG-ORD to avoid the visa)... and so now Im left hoping for a delay to miss my DFW-ORD flight. I will be very unhappy to fly DFW-ORD-DFW after 16+ hours on an airplane. But that's what happens.

Has anyone ever done a 3 hour turn around time in PEK? Is it even possible?

It can be done! I've been forced to do it before. Weather gods were with me, though; blue sky and a north wind, heh.

I was just thinking that in PEK they are going to ask me so many questions on a 2.5 turn around.
