UA/DL: LAX-STR/DUS. $784 for late summer travel. Identical pricing from DL and UA.

Seems like a pretty good price for August travel to Germany. Loads of availability for Mon-Thu travel.

STR seems to have better availability than DUS.

The earliest departure I've found is 22JUL, but with an August return.

(More realistic) Sample dates: 07AUG - 13AUG.

For UA, this is a K fare, but I've yet to find dates without at least one LH or AC segment, so be forwarned. Also, I sometimes can't pull up the fare directly on dot.bomb, but I never have a problem if I first choose my itinerary with Google flights and then select "book on united.com". (I never fly with UA, so I'm a novice with their booking tricks.)

EDIT: Also wanted to mention that this fare goes out through EoS, and gets slightly cheaper, and includes weekends, meaning that immediate turns are available.

Sample dates: 15FEB - 16FEB, $770 on UA/LH.
