Orange Juice and Lemon Carpet Club? Sorry, I'm new to MRs, never having thought I could do them out of London.

OJ= Open Jaw = Departing from diff airport than the final arriving airport. eg - Departing from BRU to FRA and returning from FRA to LHR.

LCC = Low Cost Carrier - like Ryanair etc.

Ohh, I see. Thank you, I'll have a look at those sorts of fare builds. Any advice on good medium-length target cities from LHR for *A?

Wow, that code does quite some magic, also when departing from other cities. Could you tell me what kind of code it is (can anyone use it)?

Thanks!

Not sure if this a great fare but it looks decent enough so my apologies in advance if this isn't good. Used mileage calc to calculate the mileage accrued. Looked like you could do some creative routings through LAS, CLT, BOS, MUC, and others for same price or a couple of bucks more. Non refundable fare though.

Purchase ticket by: Monday 01/03/2011
Travel complete: Travel valid 1/5/2011 to 3/31/2011
Advance purchase: None
Minimum/maximum stay: No minimum stay; 30-day maximum stay
Cabin: Coach
Travel on: All or part of service may be on (1) US Airways, (2) regional or jet aircraft operated by US Airways Express carriers Air Midwest, Air Wisconsin, Chautauqua, Colgan, Mesa, Piedmont, PSA, Republic Airways, Trans States, (3) regional or jet aircraft operated by Mesa Airlines, (4) United Airlines(R), (5) Bahamasair, (6) Windward Islands Airways International, (7) Lufthansa, (8) Spanair, or (9) bmi.

CO/UA: DFW-IND Segment Run under $30/segment

DFW-IND roundtrip can be had for as little as $139 a/i. Segment runners can book DFW-ORD-CLT-IND-CLT-ORD-DFW for $168 a/i ($28/segment) and about 5 CPM. ORD/CLT appears to be the only double connection available. Single connections are available in IAH, CLE, and ORD which can make this a cheap throwaway positioning flight from DFW to several of ConUniHound's hubs.
