While technically this is not a mileage run it is an incredible fare. Where else is it going to be shared with the community?

I check Flyertalk regularly for news of great fares and if it isn't in Mileage Run it is likely to be overlooked by me. I would be unlikely to check the Third World FFP forums. There are probably dozens of other low fare seekers like me in the community who benefit from these mileage run forum leads.

I am looking for an end-of-year ticket to Europe (miles would be great, but I need to go regardless) and this has been the most interesting post in days on the mileage run forum. The dozens of requests by individuals for help with their end of year flight planning are pretty boring topics.

I have found several dates with availability for the $181 round trip. My hesitation is that I have to get to New York and I have learned from past purchases that great deals out of New York tend not to work out as great bargains after factoring in the cross country flights.
