if you are coming from asian country than departing here in USA.

I asked for a quote from LAX-MNL-LAX on C Class it's like more than 4k almost 5k for roundtrip. If you are in manila you can purchase I class mnl-lax-mnl for 18 hundred us dollars. departing bkk is cheap too. so I took LAX-MNL one way on Z class Northwest for 795.00 OW on March 11 then march 17 mnl-lax on CX's business only 2,600 hundred all in all NW one segment and one roundtrip c class of CX mnl-lax-mnl</font>

Very common - we all do it all the time -

Basically, yield management will drive fare levels that are consistent with the ability to generate O and D traffic in local markets.
