I could deduct the whole trip.

Just to confirm that those wanting to stopover and see Sean in 'Sleeping Beauty' should aim to be in Hong Kong (in town for 7.30pm start) on either Thurs 12 or Fri 13, there won't be any shows in the days right after the do, but will be on the following Thurs/Fri/Sat.
Ticket orders through me as on-line not available for all shows held in Hk Gov't Theatres. Will post prices when know, but around the HK$200 mark.

I'm hoping for more reasonable fares to show up, but so far its pricing high that weekend. Hasn't it been awhile since fares with less than 6 day minimum have been offered though?

I'm Confirmed.
Jan. 12 UA 6451 RNO-SFO
.......... UA 837 SFO-NRT
Jan. 13 UA 891 NRT-SIN
Jan.16 UA 890 SIN-NRT-LAX
......... UA 857 LAX-SFO
......... UA 6438 SFO-RNO.
mjm - I'm looking forward to meeting you at the NRT RCC again. Thank you for organizing this again.
I've been watching these UA fares for 6 months, hoping they might fall. Instead they have been gradually rising. So I finally decided to "bite the bullet" and ticket. Fortunately I was still able to upgrade to business (NC) on above routing. The prospect of 18 hours in coach is a sobering one (which I have indeed done once). There is currently no NC seating available on UA852 NRT-SFO Jan.16, for instance - however it is available on the later flight UA838 NRT-SFO.
