Available from most markets in Europe. One can go from HEL to SIN for 499€. Its a nice bargain fare, but not much of an MR. Still worth if looking to get into the sun during winter.

Thank you so much! Just booked two relatives LON-DEL on 12/19 and back on 01/03 for 350 GBP (~$560) each. For that time of the year, these are crazy prices. I think you saved us $1000.

Somebody at LH rev mgmt is not doing their job well, for which I am grateful.

Good solid LH cheap offers but hardly considered as a mileage run deals. Good economy deals would be better for these IMHO.

AA Fall Sale

Got it in the AA email a few hours ago... not the best CPM but some good deals..
NYC-Key West, routed via BNA and MIA or return via MIA and RDU/BOS for about 200 all in...
LGA-RDU-MIA-EYW-MIA-BNA-LGA 8/27 to 8/29 $200 Bucks or a 5.31 CPM... not great, but not horrible

SDQ routed via MIA and SJU for 400... again not bad a sale, but fugly from a CPM perspective....

From HEL-FRA-SIN-FRA-HEL is 492 with this deal. Thats approx. $717 for 14000 EQM on UA/CO which is $0.051 / mile. Unless I am calculating this wrong, 5 cents a mile these days is not a bad MR originating from Europe. Please correct me if I am wrong, but either way its booked

That is a very good deal. Can you use SWU's to upgrade this fare class? What fare class did it book into?

OK, perhaps I'm blind but could you point out how much LH L class intercontinental earns on UA?!
