Do you consider yourself a masochist?

Interestingly however there is some availability showing on the 787 service into Heathrow at these prices. HKG for £1660 or so is a good buy in my book!

I don't think the 787 flies to either MAN or MEL. The wording of the e-mail (if you got the same one) was that these promo fares were to celebrate the launch of the 787 service.

FT = Where Fares Go to Die. Alas.
F is still available for that price from other cities. I suggest playing with ITA

UA has P-up fares for first class from certain AA hubs (notably MIA and DFW) to China for as little as $3k all-in. Transpacific sector must be on UA metal, but you can have up to 1 stopover in each direction at $100, and you're allowed to travel inside of Asia on NH metal as well as UA. I was able to make stopovers in NRT and ICN to work, but had difficulty finding a routing that allows a stopover in HKG. The fare basis starts with "P", but these book into "A" for 250% RDM and 150% EQM on 3-class UA metal.
Similarly, AA has a first class fare sale from certain UA hubs (notably IAD and IAH) to China for $3k all-in as well. These book into "P", which is first on AA. AA allows TPAC on JL metal, and intra-Asia on CA/CZ/HU.

Apologies on this--you're kind of correct. This is a GREAT fare sale, so it's worth expanding on it a bit.
