Cheapest UA flight anywhere?
Hi, can anyone suggest an extremely low cost UA flight I can book? The origin and destination don't matter - just the low cost. I have an $800 credit with UA that I cannot transfer to another person. I was told that if I book a flight less than $800 I will be issued a "coupon" for the remainder that can be used by anyone. If you know of a really low flight price below $80, please post (ideally ~$25).

There are $50 one-way flights from BOS-EWR in late February, Tuesday/Wednesday.

Those can't be bought separately.

Ha

Those by themselves are at the $600ish range. Cannot book them in anything less than Y alone.

If you connect via those, that's a different story

LAX-LAS for $57, a hair less than LAX-SFO for $59.

I flew one-way IAD-LGA last September for $54.80. Cheapest ticket I've ever booked.

While I haven't been booking tickets for that long, I do remember getting LAS-ONT tickets on WN for like $60 all in round trip in the late 90s.

MCI-ORD? Often can be grabbed for less than $85 o/w (if booking in advance). Have gotten it for $65 a/i in the past.

When I lived in Providence in the mid 2000's, it was almost the same deal on WN (around $70) for PVD-BWI. It was incredible.

I remember having to make an additional flight ORD-MSP on a biz trip and RT it was $97. That's the cheapest flight for me, in my recent memory, on UA
