Thanks to the OP for the find. This really is an amazing deal, and I hope the ticket will be honored.
I just booked a ticket from CDG to SIN, departing on Monday, December 18 and returning on Wednesday, December 27. Travelocity.com ticketed the itinerary for USD$453.40. However, being based in Europe I had to pay USD$49.95 for shipping the paper ticket and the Travelocity service fee. The total came out ot be USD$503.40. Not too bad I think. BTW the first segment is on a codeshare operated by AF, which is most likely the reason for paper ticket.

Just use travelocity to find the dates and plug those into expedia.
Of course expedia are the devil so you might be better off with travelocity.
In fact, it might be on travelocity.co.uk as well..

aua.com
i booked a ticket too, but as i had to fly back on june 2007 , the only option to book it was the aua page directly.
as i booked a similar two years ago with aua, they offered that time a 420 Euro fare at christmas , i think it should be no problem. that time the fare was offered in booking class M too.
as always, i would suggest that nobody starts calling Aua to ask them if they will honor it. in this time frame not many people can use it.
and as it is still there, it will not die until someone calls them to inform them about the glitch, if it is a glitch.
the great thing about this fare is, we can use our e-vouchers. we can earn 100% miles on most mileage programs. the fare on aua.com shows me that i can get my money back for 100Euro if i cancel, and that the dates are changable for 100 Euro. so this is fine for me.
its a great deal for the time you can book it. you can book now a ticket out for december and than come back in june 2007 . thats cool for people who live in asia and wants to visit their families in europe.
thx op!

Why would anyone book with TC? Do you not remember that Expecia honored many Hilton bookings whilst TC cancelled everything!?

If you are not based in Europe, how do you take advantage of this fare? Going from US (I'm in the east coast) will cost me a couple hundred dollars. Do you book this ticket now and wait for the winter Europe fare to come? I'm just wondering.

but i don't know if i'll buy one, need to think about it and it's in M class (Eco Flex)edited: strange, the conditions on AUA.com for this LH tickets are different from the conditions displayed on LH.fr that states
"Economy Flex - Conditions tarifaires
Changes:
The "Flex" ticket is changeable free of charge, as long as the originally booked class is still available. Otherwise, the difference to the next higher available fare will be charged .
Cancellation:
The ticket is fully refundable. In case of partial use, only the residual amount will be refunded."
