Happy 2017!

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'.

**EDIT** As for appearing on GF/ITA, yes on both.
Thank you. I realized after I posted that your deal was from CMH. I had earlier seen a very similar deal from ORD, so I was searching using that origin. Obviously didn't find the same deal, but then realized my mistake.

UA, WAS (IAD/DCA) - HKG around $650, sample dates Nov 18 - 27 (Thanksgiving week, plus minus a few days)

Also can do WAS(BWI) - ICN, HKG - IAD/DCA for about the same amount and the same dates.

All can be routed with more stops (NRT/SFO/others in US) for more miles. Not the best deal in the world, but given how rarely anything comes up from DC area.

I'm seeing E fares for Delta flights. I haven't checked to see what the price difference is for a regular economy flight yet. Edited to say the $538 E fare is a $607 nonstop V fare, at least out of MSP.

The new WN sale is being matched fairly aggressively in some markets by legacy carriers. I just bought a round trip SMF-SEA on AS for $115 which is the lowest I've paid in awhile...DL also had the price but it was an E fare (main cabin was $20 more).

My first post in this thread, hopefully it's of value.
Looking at ITA following an "error fare" on one of the blogs... The fare is JER-EWR-LGW which starts from 188 GBP on Momondo, this variant would maximise the miles a bit I think...

One World carriers are showing $350 RT fares from TXL to ORD for many dates in September and October, slightly higher ($400) in Nov.-Dec.

(similar to DUS fares above)
