These hot deals tend to be very time sensitive. What existed yesterday could very well be gone today.

JFK-TXL $380 rt, ai
ORD-TXL $420 rt, ai

Good deals to TXL. Available a few dates in early May. Check with ITA month long search.

As always, such deals go fast.

I was looking for a single flight out of NBO and found out that singles are 'half' price at emirates.com. Got a NB0-DBX-LHR ticket for $320,- And I even fly the A380 which is nice.

I dunno if it is common knowledge but I wanted to share this,

I don't have your luck. Tried to book LHR-DXB OW and it is £302 while RT is £314 at emirates.com. May-Jun timeframe.

I booked an AKL-MEL flight on the A340-500 in September 2009 for US$110. That's pretty good for a 4-hour flight.

AA/UA: CLE-GVA/ZRH starting $480 ai, June, July dates. orbiting with a strikeout. Doesn't look great but for CLE-Continental Europe in Summer, it's good (lowest I've found).

[daveland]

Right now summer travel non-stop JFK-DUB is $515 all-in. This is a great summer fare. Not MR material, but great if you want to go to DUB in summer

$168 NZD ($101 USD) on QF
$166 NZD ($100 USD) on EK

Dates available in May and June; I just booked QF26 on May 30. QF has more options available than EK.

The cheap QF fare only seems to be available on the Qantas website (select New Zealand as your region to book from AKL). The search sites are all quoting much higher prices - any ideas why?

I found the exact same issue when we were booking our MEL-CHC and WLG-MEL flights earlier this year. The US sites for NZ, EK, and QF quoted much higher prices than the local sites, and it seemed that the search engines (kayak, orbitz, etc.) only had access to the US-based fares. Weird. Also, NZ in particular has special deals in addition to the lower fares that were only available from either their Australia site OR their New Zealand site, but not both (like kids fly free).

United has JFK-LAX-NRT-HKG and back on sale for $790 all in throughout the rest of May until the end of August. It looks like a minimum stay of 6 days, though.
