You're right. I see the base fare has jumped about 50% now for a RT coming in at just about USD 300-350!
Oh well... I think I flew at least 5 RTs on those cheap fares this year despite the brutal timings. I just couldn't resist the super cheap fare, 100% SE bonus and almost guaranteed empty row to one's self in the 744.
