[FARE GONE] ORD-LHR $327 a.i. (also ex-SFO, ex-LAX)
Just like about 6-8 weeks ago this was the hot topic on the MR forum...
I know a lot of you booked this earlier this month... did you have any problems with carriers wanting to collect more $$$???
anyway... on PL
ORD-IAD-LHR; LHR-ORD
I haven't been able to get it to work with any other cities
I found OCT 19-23, but I'm sure many other fall dates are available.

What I have found (so far) is on UA. ORD-IAD-LHR-IAD-ORD The IAD-LHR shows as BMI but are operated by UA. I've tried a few dates (Sept 17 -22 and 18-23) that come up as $627. but once you click through they are $327.
I need AA so I'll keep looking.

Able to get 12/10-12/16 for $223 a.i.
Already booked in October off last months trips...think I may have to book another London trip or two or three at these rates
PS: watch the connections...some routes have ORD-DCA then IAD-LHR...I don't know how easy it is to transport from one to the other but it's a note. It looks like the return flight going LHR-MAN-ORD won't trick, either.

Immediate turns on 13/14DEC also available for $223.
I would love to see if PL will add on an ex-LHR trip, breaking the fare at LHR but showing the onward travel as a connection, negating the LHR taxes. LH has a 1 GBP roundtrip to DUS that would be nice...

Well just booked XXXX-XXXX for my partner and I at $226 each all in. All is confirmed now
If this deal is still available in the morning when I can reach the in-laws, we will verify they can do those dates and buy them tix as well.
In other words...shhhhhhhhhhh. Don't call Priceline UNTIL THE DEAL IS DEAD, m'kay???
