I’ve been searching and trying to do LUX-LHR-NCL/MAN/EDI/BDU-LHR-LUX, and have been getting like $800 usd fares. If anyone has alternate routing they could suggest I’d really appreciate it.
Dates from August 16th until the 30th (I don’t want to stay there that time of course)
from FRA, LUX or even STR, wanna fly CE
ideally sub $600 usd if that’s possible?
would appreciate any help! Thanks.
long day trip Weds August 23rd:
$390 AGP-HEL-CPH on Finnair in business, dep 1130 arr 1835 = 180TP

nest this inside:

outbound:
$126 economy Eurowings STR-AGP dep 0550 arr 0845
return:
$104 economy Luxair CPH-LUX dep 2055 arr 2245

Total $620

if the STR start is unappealing there’s also LUX but more expensive:
$325 economy Luxair LUX-AGP dep 0605 arr 0850

The positioning flights get you a few Star Alliance miles which might be helpful to extend the validity of a different account
