Any AA flights for less than $60.00 R/T?
 

Does anyone know of any flight anywhere on the AA system that is less than $60.00 round trip all in?

Many award tickets. ;)

You'd be looking at possibly a one-way ticket on a Southwest-matched route. Otherwise, taxes will kill you. Even those lovely $56 fares had over $20 in taxes added on.

I'll be kind this time, because you pique my curiosity. Why is $60 the magical number?

I would attempt to familiarize myself with the various tools display fare sales (including Dream Maps), and post your research findings before asking the rest of the AA board this question.

And my answer is, no, not that I know of right now, if ever. $60 all in would be about $50+, and I've never seen that (except on mistake fares).

Come to New Zealand. I had a ticket yesterday from Queenstown to Wellington, via Christchurch, and the fare was $NZ67, with $NZ87 in taxes (about $US100 total). I can't recall ever paying more in taxes that for the cost of the revenue ticket itself.

Maybe he is trying to get EXP for $3000 or less

Can be done....but a single short hop fare is not the key!

Do tell
 

What is the way that you reccomend? Didn't mean to hi-jack the thread, but I would like to know the alternative to <$60 short-hops.

EZE to MVD is $62 RT on a nice big 767 for a 142-mile flight. Did it last week. However taxes make it $99 all in. All you have to do is go down to South America to take advantage of it.

It's either miles or segments, whichever you prefer. Some FTers are quite adept at getting 10 segments into one ticket. I prefer the mileage route myself, having done a bunch of SFO-JFK-DCA's this year on $130RT base fares, each bringing in 6,000 status miles.

The $56 out of DAL I got only had $16.10 in taxes added to it, for $72.10 all in--but very worthwhile since the trio I've got on hold will also get a 30k bonus.

I don't think this work since you can't do a challenge for EXP. If you could I would try. So that means you would have to fly a lot of segments to reach the EXP.

My round trip to Hawaii is only costing me $10! and 35k miles

Fly 100,000 miles or 100 segments. 100,000 miles is not that difficult. Each trip I do to Europe from the west coast is at least 12K, and transcons 5K. It adds up pretty quickly. I've already flown 70K this year and anticipate a lot more.

You've obviously never flown RyanAir on one of their 1GBP fare specials! :D

Not an AA partner so we can't officially count them :D
