I just thought that I'd post this as a good fare or for positioning. This is definitely not a mileage run; this fare basis (H) accrues no mileage. It is a good fare only, and I'm posting it because someone might find it useful.
This is available on the EVA website only as far as I can tell and winds up being about $96.00 less than Orbitz etc.
I'b been looking for a good fare to BKK for a month or so and this beats anything out of SEA.
Actual Fare Paid : USD 634
Tax : AY 2.50
Tax : US 32.20
Tax : XT 41.9
Total : USD 710.6
I'm rather mysitfied at how uncompetative the US airlines are on fares to asia. This EVA fare is refundable for $100.00 fee and carries a $100.00 change fee. It's good for 2 months and has no minimum stay. UA and Northwest are totally non refundable, $250.00 change fee and are good for 30days (45 for NW). The real deal breaker with UA/NW is that their fares are considerably more expensive, even using the nice fuel drop trick north of the border UA was $790.00.
I hope someone finds this usefull.
