BEY-Australia (except PER): YY/YIF USD2,300++

To my mind this is a good offer to Australia given that this is a fully unrestrticted fare. The only unfortunate side of it is that more and more airlines refuse to allow IATA fares be booked into higher classes (eg, Emirates sucks with IATA economy fares booked in V).

CLE-Hawaii $441 a/i UA

h/t Travelzoo for this one. Looks like you have to arrive on a Sunday, and stay 5 nights. Work to Lihue, Maui, Honolulu, Kona. Good throughout 2010. Books into S and T. It's about 4.9 c/mi.

AA: BUR-DFW-CLE r/t $177.80 ai

This fare was loaded last night (found on farecompare & ita).

Fare basis: QA14DNR
14-day AP
No min stay
4-transfers each way

3.95cpm with just the one connection in DFW, but AA experts can probably get that lower.

Mostly available in February from what I could see.

JFK to SFO for $99, or about $110 all in on AA. That's a good 2586 miles. Only 40 of those bad boys and you're EXP.

The applicable dates would be very helpful, don't you think? That fair is certainly not available 24/7/365, is it?

Saw this one mid-Feb looking at fares for my brother, one way outbound on umm, something like the 18th. Wasn't looking at any returns, but...

seems to be gone now at $99 on the 18th, although they have some $99 fares from NYC metro to SFO metro on 2/16-2/21 (possibly later) for $99. $99 on the 18th is HPN-SFO. $109 LGA-SJC, $119 now for JFK-SFO

Return on the 24th is $99 for SFO-JFK.

Departure Fare per Person 119.00 USD
Return Fare per Person 99.00 USD
Total Fare per Person 218.00 USD
Additional Taxes and Fees per Person 21.40 USD
Total Price 239.40 USD

Not too shabby.

From my end in SFO, out the 6th returning the 9th is $219 AI. Too much time off work to be worth it for me to save $20 - same $239 fare above is out the 6th, returning the 7th. 3 of the 4 weekends in Feb, there seem to be that fare out of SFO - weekend of the 20th, no cheaper fare going back from SFO.
