For those of you looking for $500-600 UA fares to SIN w/o the 6-day minimum, I just priced out a run for the dates 12/11-16, PDX-LAX-NRT-SIN-NRT-LAX-PDX for $576. Perhaps you'll be able to find a sans-6-day-min. on other dates. Good luck.

My January SIN fun starts on Jan 12th when I arrive on UA805 (after 3 nights in HKG). I'm meeting a friend who arrives on the 17th. Haven't decided if I'm staying in SIN til then, but would love to get together.
Departing on Feb 12th through HKG-NRT-HNL-etc
I think the 6 day stay applies to most fares for travel after Dec 25th.
If anyone finds a short SIN run fare in the next 3 weeks, I'm still looking to purchase one more.
I'll be in EZE from Feb 25 to Mar 5. Let's organize...

Mrs IK and myself, plan on being in HKG the 17th through the 20th. Like others have posted I am waiting until UAL loads the good fares for January to purchase the tickets, so we may very well route through SIN during that trip depending on what the fare rules look like.

Put together a little webpage for our adventure.
The link is:
http://www.twics.com/~mjm/sinruna.html
I think I have the info correct and it is all taken from postings in this thread and the Itineraries Forum. If I have incorrectly included someone, left anyone off the list, or if you simply wish to add some details to the page, drop me an e-mail.
Looking forward to seeing everybody soon.

mjm, cool as usual,
looking forward to "breaking noodles" with everyone.
I'm in, although only for the night of Saturday the 18th (arriving midnight)
Have never been to HKG and could not resist the cheap flight to get there from SIN.
Special shout out to Transpac on the heads up for no 6 day stay minimum on UA!!!

I've joined the asylum.
Jan 16
CLD-LAX-NRT-SIN (arriving on UA 881 on Jan 17)
Jan 20
SIN-NRT-LAX-CLD (departing on UA 882)
I was able to immediately upgrade the return. The outbound is waitlisted - which based on recent history will mean at the gate.
I decided to go for two Hilton credits.
Jan 17 - Hilton Singapore
Jan 18, 19 - Conrad Singapore
Here's an oddity. For that particular weekend, fares ex-SAN are $1500. Yet the identical routing, except with the originating flight CLD-LAX instead of SAN-LAX, the fare drops to $596. Bizarre! Usually, it is the reverse.
My thanks to transpac for finding the fare and to mjm for putting up a cool website, so that I knew the dates for people to travel. I'll see you in the RCC in NRT, mjm!

Willie,
Right on. See you there for the slurping of noodles.
Carol,
Most excellent! NRT RCC it shall be.
I think I shall add a NRT RCC rendezvous list to the webpage in the next few weeks. Any other takers?
