Net SAAver to EZE 6/21
 
Just got an email about a Net SAAver deal, JFK/LGA-EZE for $477 + taxes and fees eachway.


Fares must be ticketed no later than 11:59 p.m. (CT) Sunday,
June 19, 2011, for flights departing anytime Tuesday, June 21, 2011, through Friday,
June 24, 2011, with a return the following Monday through Wednesday.
Only bad thing is that travel can only last for a week. For such a long flight it would be nice to have it stretched to 2 weeks. Anyway, not sure who else is based out of NYC that flies to EZE, but this is a great deal. The best price I have ever seen for this flight in the past was $800 each way before taxes and fees.

Sounds like Biz101 to me.... aka trying to recoup some of the losses.... ;) ^

I don't like winter anymore, last year I spent 5+ week in Bs As just visiting my family/friends and it was like 2 weeks on summer, the day is too short :(

Check Lan, they usually have some good fare for JFK-MIA, sometimes cheaper than MIA-EZE. I had 2 weeks off starting this Friday and I didn't buy a ticket for $845 (6/16 to 6/29) because is winter :( ( $935-10% off sale -10% off coupon).

PS: don't you have AA or BA miles? JFk-EZE is 40k miles for RT ticket in spring break :)

I completely agree. They are doubling down. Winter is coming to BsAs and they are trying to get as much traffic before off-peak starts.

If you have never been to BsAs this could be a quick, nonstop flight, and cheap way to do it.

Well coming from NYC, BsAs "winter" is not to bad and besides its more like fall right now.

I do have that 100k BA promo miles. Like you suggested I am looking to get the off-peak travel so I can get 2 R/T out of them, haha. Stretching those miles.

If the day is too short then I suggest you get out earlier in the morning instead of lying in bed. :p

Light around seven in the morning and getting dark just after six. Compared to a Scottish winter day that means four hours extra light here.....it's wonderful. ^
I prefer the capital in winter....not so keen being there on a hot summer day.

yeap :D but I hate summer too :p :eek:

If you have 100K BA you can get 5 R/T off-peak on AA metal ;)

JFK-EZE 3/3/2012

EZE-JFK 3/20/2012

for

40K + 61.50 (taxes)

or

20K + $255 (20K) + 61.50 (taxes)=20K+316.50 ^ ;)

100K BA miles = 5 R/T (off-peak) for a total of $1,582.50

Indeed you can. Great bargain using BA miles + cash yet those American dudes are always going on about how useless the BAEC is. :rolleyes:

cochino_BA Jun 15, 2011 12:51 pm

That is a great deal and I agree all AAdvantage members who got the 100K BA do is complain how sucky BA is. They seem pretty good to me! I can easily do all my travel off-peak to get the best out of those miles.

I tried using BA.com and going to Executive Club tab then Spending miles. Then I input all the data and search. This causes the red box that british does not fly this route and I click on the "include partners" tab and I still get no availablitly.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for the help.

HIDDY Jun 15, 2011 1:23 pm

No availability means no availability. :p

BA only have access to AA MileSaver award seats. If you see them on the AA site then BA will be able to book them.

Gaucho100K Jun 15, 2011 1:43 pm

The above is yet more proof to what Ive been saying for a long time now... the FF game is nothing like it used to be. Mileage inflation and the big hidden enemy (capacity controls and award seat inventory management) make this like a Casino for the frequent flyer..... the House (aka the Airlines) always win.

You will get "include partners" twice before you see the seats ;)
As HIDDY said, If you see them on the AA.com you will be able to book them on BA.com

I love BA to check partners availability, they tell you how many seats are available ^


FedV
PS: I agree with you Gaucho100K, looks like AA only have 7 awards available on each fly (off-peak seats) :eek:
