Just posted in MR Deals, so get it while it lasts (if you are so inclined):

SFO-EWR-LIM-SFO-EWR for $564.30 a/i. 12,396 EQM at 4.6cpeqm. Excellent deal for LIM from the West Coast. All segments should be EUA-able (though best of luck with SFO-EWR). 752s with BF seats on EWR-LIM.

ETA - I'm doing a quickie on 3/13-15 (actually arrives back in SFO on 3/16).

Whatever happened to the fun winter specials to the EU? I have done trips to ZRH and BRS for 25K miles and think it would be a hoot if CO dropped a couple of these type trips on the CO.com specials list.

1/2-Off Standard Biz Rewards during Holiday periods would also be much appreciated. I think I have a better chance of getting that pony, though...

PHL-IAH-SJC/SFO-EWR-LIM-EWR-SFO/SJC-IAH-PHL.

Over 18k EQMs for about $800. I could even sleep at home during an 17 hour layover between SFO-EWR and EWR-LIM.

:D

Another great point.

Imagine a bunch of us on the day flight to LHR on Saturday and returning on Monday. Man oh man! ^^

Yeah it would be great, but not going to happen. I don't ever remember there being a discount on BusinessFirst awards. If there has been, it's been a very, very long time since it happened.

Although, there was a time when CO had off-peak awards for the winter as part of the standard award chart, for about a 20% discount. I can't remember if BusinessFirst was included in that or not though.

Do it! My flights will involve the 10:20pm red-eye SFO-EWR on 3/13, with an 08:15 layover in EWR (will probably book the EWR Sheraton just to crash for a few hours), 24 Hours in LIM, and a return flight SFO-IAH that will get me back to IAH around midnight on 3/16. I'm going to be an absolute wreck at the end of this thing. :D

Did anyone take monitor up on his party flight donation?

My routing would involve a Thursday evening departure from PHL, an overnight in SFO, an overnight at home while I wait out the EWR layover, 24 hours in LIM and then arriving back in to PHL on Monday just before midnight. Can you die from flying too much in a short period of time? :)

Must buy lottery ticket so I can do crazy stuff like this.

I thought CO Insider flew a lot... Just talked to someone who flew 500,000 miles last year. Says he flies almost every weekend + plus vacations, usually through AMS.

Not to my knowledge. You can earn shed-loads of Miles, though. :D
