CO: SFO-WAS ~$198 ai

Published late last night.

Fri. and Mon. travel higher.

I am finding sparse availability. But there is a same-day turn on Sept. 25 WAS-SFO.

An easy 6k or so flight miles.

9/18 - same day turn. Lots of ERJ flying, but such is life.

Not sure if we were looking at the same thing: 9/18, same day turn, out of IAD xIAH.

Though, now it appears that the fare is gone.

No, the fare is still there.

Found DCA-IAH-SFO for $199 a/i going out 9/4 and returning 9/7.

Looks like pretty good availability - at least in Sept - the only month I checked.

CO: SFO -IAD $ 68.40 ow + tax

booked sfo - iad via ewr for 68.40 usd + 26 usd tax. adds up to 95 usd ai. many dates available later this year and next year. interestingly, the fare does not show up if you you look for round trips. you have to look for oneways. available on continental.com, travelocity and priceline. not available on expedia.

before you ask: sample date is jan 24. about 20 different options for that price on that particular day alone.

you say it connects through ewr... i'm guessing that fare breaks if you start at ewr...

Nice one FH77!
There is also via IAH. It appears these are L fares, so 100% on UA.

Hi flyinghigh77,
Your thread has been reported as being the same fare as this one.
They have now been merged into this pre-existing thread. For the purpose of this thread, WAS=IAD.
