EK/TK: IAH or AUS to Milan, Italy (MXP) via IST $875 - CPM: 5.87 (14894 miles)

Saw this on Orbitz.

One thing that was nice was I was able to add a one week stopover in Istanbul for + $50. So instead of just vacationing in Milan I was able to add a week in Istanbul (IST) for small change.

I'm pretty sure that the IAH - IST route allows other stopovers, but I haven't messed with it much since I'm mainly wanting to do MXP. IST was just a fun diversion since I'm actually vacationing and taking it slow instead of mileage running.

Edit: Be sure to verify your fare code. Avoid super discount W and P as those will have 25% accrual after June 1st.

Flight Details:
  • Availability: I was able to pull up flights in September / October for Tuesday-to-Tuesday flights.
  • Departure and Destination Airports: IAH or AUS - MXP
  • Example Dates: IAH – MXP Tue September 30th – Tue October 14th
  • Example Dates: AUS – MXP Tue September 30th – Tue October 14th
  • Carrier: American or Jetblue / Emirates or Turkish
  • Fare Class: Economy
  • CPM: 5.87 (14894 miles)
  • Full Route: IAH - IST – MXP – IST – IAH
