From the fine print...

*These fares are valid as of Fri., May 17, 2013 12:01 AM Central
Sale is valid for select fares on flights from the US to Europe between June 28, 2013, and September 5, 2013, with return to the US by September 5, 2013. A 60-day advance purchase and a Sunday-night stay are required.
So, while the sale may say that it's for flights starting June 28, because of the 60-day advance requirement in practice these fares can only be bought for travel on or after July 16.

And because of the Sunday night stay, also in practice the last valid outbound is on 8/31.

Couldn't they make it a little easier and say that the sale is for outbound 7/16 to 8/31?
