I've received my paper ticket (CMB SIN NRT LAX) and I wonder if I could change the dates : the areas "Not valid before" and "Not valid after" are empty and the booking class is C.

Does any one have a travel agent in Columbo or Nagumbo, Sri Lanka that will sell the CMB C or F fare? I want to use United from either gateway BKK or SIN.

The only ones I could find online didnt sell the reduced fare or wanted a very good margin. All fares came in over $2,000, and earlier this year before United stopped us buying in US this year, I had one member on FA that was able to book for about $1,700 all in.

So does anyone have a TA to buy these CMB-LAX, SFO tickets?

Regards,
Robert

Is this a one-way or a return fare?

You did not buy an ex-CMB UA fare to the West Coast from Orbitz after February 2006.

How are you getting Orbitz to price/issue an ex-CMB ticket? I keep getting the message that Orbitz cannot issue itineraries starting in Sri Lanka, and many other countries for that matter.

IMHO this is a better deal. You can get about 34K EQMs round trip by routing yourself CMB-SIN-NRT-HNL-LAX-SFO-SEA-SFO-LAX-HNL-NRT-SIN-CMB. And you can upgrade to United First Suite with miles or Systemwide upgrades if you have them.
Where can I find the rules of the CSPL fare ?

Delta 767 400 flights Good deal economy fare with Premium seat!

Just thought everyone on this thread should be aware that Delta has some flights over the pond this summer with domestic first class seats available for economy price. Delta does not have the money or time yet to convert the planes to international business they are selling the flights as all coach. If you get a seat in the first seven rows you will get a domestic first class seat with economy service and that means you can purchase an ecomony ticket!

You can check out seat guru or find the plane config on delta web site under 767 400er

Some of the routes

Atlanta to London Gatwick
Atlanta to Shannon Ireland
Atalnta to Rome Italy
NYC to Rome ?

Germany ends early July?

Don't you have to have elite status with Delta in order to select these seats?
