Happy 2016!

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:
  • When posting 'Good deals' fares: 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.
  • Note that you can subscribe to this thread: go to "Thread Tools" at the top of the thread and click on "Subscribe to this thread".
  • This is not a fare request thread. Any fare requests will be deleted.

TK has some rather good fares (less than 1500 NOK return) in economy ex-OSL to Malta (MLA) via IST. Books in P class which means that one cannot earn any miles on any other *A airlines.

Sample dates: dep. 14th June, return 4th July.

Just booked a YEG-HND-HKG-GUM-HNL-LAX-SFO-YEG mileage run, booked at $936 CAD which is 5.1 CPM on UA's site

Have almost 11 hours in Tokyo and over 9 hours in Hong Kong, plenty of time to check out each city!!

I know not as awesome as the $600 CAD HKG fares that pop up everyonce in a while, but a good way to get over 18K PQM

Sounds great!

I tried ITA, CheapO, The Big O & Kayak and can't find anything to BUD or ATH. Where did you dig these up? Sample dates?

Thanks!

Just stumbled across RDU - OSL on UA/*A (mostly UA metal with a couple different routings) for $687 in August and a few other random dates.

Not a bad deal for Europe in the summer.
