Requirements to find great business deals:
- be flexible in timing, routing and destinations
- have flexible points (like your URs) or miles/points in various programs
- understand alliances and which carriers fly where
- use 3rd party search tools
- invest time into learning stuff here and elsewhere.
- use Google wisely
- PATIENCE - don’t be frustrated if you don’t find a good deal with your first attempt
