That is why I am chasing the fare. After I am able, I intend to show it to others by posting it to the group. 14 day advance, and somewhat higher available for 7 day, 3 day, and 0 day advance. Excellent availability. Similar fares appear to be available in many other markets. No minimum. Immediate return allowed, or one or more sunny days in paradise allowed at no extra cost. If I can overcome the pricing battles, mightn't that sound good to people trying to requalify this year, but with limited BIS time on their hands?
Finally, sweet success! THANK YOU! I had tried almost the exact thing, but I had been trying two legs each way, not three. Apparently I was either running into a 4 hour and 4 minute connection forcing a stopover, or not the last flight of the day overnight stopover problem, not sure which.
