A friend and I will visit Istanbul over the President's Day weekend in February, 2015. We each paid $633 roundtrip at the UA website. Itinerary: IAD-FRA-IST-MUC-IAD. We decided to avoid Toronto in the winter as a connecting point. Also wanted lifetime miles for the UA trans Atlantic segments.

Reposting my post from the good deals economy page:

This is also available with a 24 hour stopover in AMS and 12 hour stopover in Frankfurt from IAD for $587 in case you want to do more exploring. This does reduce the CPM because the fare class is K and AMS-FRA-IST is on Lufthansa though, but worth it IMO because Amsterdam is a great city. I believe this free stopover works because it's technically a 23hr 5min layover, not a stopover. It only works on some dates... keep trying.

Search IAD::AMS UA+ on the outbound to find, use hipmunk multi-city to book.

Yet it can be really nice and as quiet as IST can be. Not sure why we're talking about weather on a MR deal...

would i be able to board from Toronto instead of JKF, basically just missing the JFK from Toronto and boarding the Toronto to Istanbul flight?

No. You must fly all segments. You can skip the last one technically but if you skip any other one, all subsequent segments will be cancelled.

TFD is always taking fares from here and reporting them without any credit. OP makes no explicit claims that he found it himself so I see nothing wrong here.
