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'.

Yup. That's how airfares are currently. I'm not going to get into the reasons of it because that's beyond the scope of this thread, but if you're curious as to why it was cheaper to go to JNB than LHR there are numerous discussions about that throughout this site as well as other articles on the web.

Doesn't matter--it's summer travel.
Airfare SFO-AMS ranges from $1300-$1800 for June travel.
I just got my buddy booked RT with 2hr layovers in Iceland and checked bag and seat selection in Row 2 for $716 RT for June. He was stoked as he was prepared to lay out $1300. (I was able to book my flights for the same trip on BA last October for $1600 RT in J )
An awesome deal for those looking for the absolute cheapest deal to get across the Atlantic!!!!! ^^^^^^^^^

Flew WOW BWI/CDG earlier this year for $99 OW. Returned with UA OSL/WAS for $377 R/T and used AA one-way miles for my final return.

Right now there's $46 rt LAX-YVR ($45.86) on several Tuesday/Wednesdays/Saturdays through March/April on DL, but no MQDs, apparently because the base fare is $0, and no MQMs, because it's a T fare on WestJet.
It's on a commuter plane, so there's a good chance you'll check your bags at the gate.
Still, less than $50 anywhere in the US is a good deal, imo.
