On the heels of the great Premium Economy sale to ICN reported by user
miikkak yesterday, Alitalia is also having a sale in Premium Economy to many of its long-haul destinations (oustide of North America sadly).
Sample terms for the sale are:
Fare Basis: APREU books into A,Y
TRAVEL FROM LAST STOPOVER MUST COMMENCE NO EARLIER THAN
THE FIRST SUN AFTER DEPARTURE FROM FARE ORIGIN
OR - TRAVEL FROM LAST STOPOVER MUST COMMENCE NO EARLIER
THAN 5 DAYS AFTER DEPARTURE FROM FARE ORIGIN.
NO STOPOVERS PERMITTED.
VALID FOR TRAVEL COMMENCING ON/AFTER 01MAR 15 AND ON/
BEFORE 30JUN 15. ALL TRAVEL MUST BE COMPLETED BY MIDNIGHT
ON 30JUN 15.
TICKETS MUST BE ISSUED ON/AFTER 27FEB 15 AND ON/BEFORE
13MAR 15.
Routings are fairly limited to just AAA-FCO-BBB.
The best deals are on open jaws, starting and ending at different points within Europe.
As miikkak found, the best way to find these is through the Kayak German site at kayak.de. Then click through to purchase once you've found that. The best way to use the kayak site is to change the URL directly, changing the dates and airport codes as you see fit.
These are also available at the Alitalia website. They've seem to have made some advances in past years as it used to be horrible for booking open jaws. But I was able to find some of these itins on the Alitalia website.
The best way to use Alitalia.com would be to find dates that work under a simple round-trip, ex. LON-GRU-LON. Then once you've found availability on particular dates, switch to a multi-city, ex. ATH-GRU-LON, and price it out there. Then book it!
Some sample EUR cities where fares have been filed:
LON/FRA/ZRH/BCN/MAD/BUD/ATH/MUC/IST/PAR/AMS/BER/DUS
Here are some itins that I have found that work. Post your workable kayak.de links in the wiki!
