We've also had no problems finding cheap flights during flash sales. Went to Italy for 105k last summer, direct from ATL, leaving Thursday returning Saturday.
Europe isn't bad if you are flexible.
Was actually just looking for those exact dates (well, sort of - 12/26ish to 1/12ish). Deciding between Europe or Asia. 2 seats in J.
Can get to ZRH or GVA for 140k each.
Can get to NRT and try the A350 suites for 265k each.
The extra 250k RDM is nothing to sneeze at, but we have the RDM sitting around and it's a shiny new product so...seriously considering New Years in Japan...
