Thank You Sir,
I just booked that flight and paid the 33 extra bucks so I could return same day. Came to about 4.9 CPM. I know is this the standard method of computing a MR but for me it involves about extra 60 dollars between tolls gas etc. This is NOT a complaint. Will there ever be a MR out of HPN (White Plains NY)? It seems like the local airports rarely get a "break" . Thanks again and sorry to be off topic

I'm seeing the same fare on Matrix from Sept 19th, returning the 23rd, but can't seem to find it anywhere to buy it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, BobKop! I've been wanting to visit a friend in PHX.

Oh, and DavidBRKLYN: I had no trouble finding the fares on AA.com after searching on Kayak. TYPs booking engine had some trouble finding the fare in one direction but not the other.

Hmm, i still can't seem to make it work. Just a minute ago found Sept 30>Oct 6 for $196 on matrix, but only $302 on kayak and $316 on aa.com.

What am I doing wrong here?

Yeah, have no trouble finding multiple $196 options on Matrix, but can't get them to show up on any purchase site. Even called AA and they couldn't find the same fare.

Here are the flights I booked and as I mentioned same day return.
I leave at 5:45 am and return at 11pm. Came out to about 4.9CPM.
I'm happy to get the miles in but in retrospect perhaps I'm better off ( to each his own) to take longer flights, since much of the time is in airport lounge. OTOH I can work on these flights as all have wifi and there are VIP lounges at all stops. THANK YOU, THANK YOU BobKop. Flight is on 11/17 but saw other dates as well. Hope I get upgraded!
