Until Mar11, books to G/U which earns 100% even on M&L. Also from other EU cities to other US cities. FCO-SFO seems to have best cpm. Weekends possible until EOS.

I'm sure there's more tweaking to be done here like FCO-PHL-IAD-CLT-LAS-PHX-LAX-SFO or something similar for <3 cpm.

Does it work the other way around and whether it works just before Christmas? Can someone please post the flight rule? Thanks.

Looks like it was pulled, even though rule was: ticketing on/before 02NOV10.

On the other hand, next fare up, L is available, and the ticketing rule on that one is on/before 01NOV10.

Just as I was ready to buy it...

It wasn't a patience, I was waiting for some money/voucher to clear before I could buy it...

Can not find the fare on ITA.

I see only some L fares which are $688.

Could you point any dates?

LGW still has a good base fare to California [T], but UK APD is a killer at Ł60
