Interesting how this is priced relative to the M fare. I looked at SFO-LHR, which is showing the promo price of $1399 o/w, and its the same price before taxes, YQ, etc, as the M fare in the market. There is a Z fare showing cheaper than this, and an H and several B fares. I'm guessing they're going after the mileage upgrade crowd with this one.

No seven-day minimum -- only Saturday night stay required. I got $1949-ish for IAD-LHR at the end of the month for Friday night-Sunday afternoon.

You'd think if they were going to offer something like this they would at least get the fares loaded properly before announcing it.

I just tried searching SEA-LHR using several dates in Aug & Sep and am getting a fare of over $8,000. I checked ExpertFlyer and UA is publishing a discounted Z fare SEA-LHR, ZRSPY3E for $2,772 round trip. However there is a 7 day min stay requirement instead of a Sat nite stay. Hopefully they will fix this error as it is just plain wrong based on that information page about the promotion. With all taxes and other stuff added in the fare comes to $3,465.80 from SEA.
