MIA - CUR RT $73.26 ai 6/10 depart

flydae.com has this price for anyone looking for an immediate getaway. The fare shows up when you click calculate price. The fare is $18.40 + taxes 53.40 plus they add a $2.86 visa or mastercard transaction fee on to it to get the $73.26 ai. And if you have kids under 12 they fly free. Other depart days may be available according to Kayak, but I have not checked. Good times in Curacao coming up! By the way my return is on the 13th.

UA FLL-SJC r/t US$278.20, 5.4/5.2 CPM

I haven't noticed this posted yet...

Off ITA, books into G (GA7KN), FLL-IAH-SJC, Aug 21 onwards, some blackouts dates (e.g. "TRAVEL IS NOT PERMITTED 08JUN 12 THROUGH 20AUG 12"). Looks like travel available until Nov 02, 2012.

Same day turns available on the one-stop, likely overnight on the two-stop. Didn't dig deep on this one.

$285.80 for 5.2 CPM, FLL-IAH-DEN-SJC r/t. Connections in LAX, too.


Hope someone can use this one!

Cheers.

DL: RDU-MEX for $254 rt ai.

Routing is via ATL, which yields 6.94cpm, so not a MR but an excellent fare to Mexico City from RDU. Wide availability, even during the Christmas season.

Thanks, I was able to tweak the CPM to 3.99 on DL with the following route: FLL-DTW-LAX-SJC-ATL-DTW-FLL.

Is the BOS-EWR-IAH flight a through flight number? A lot of time these fares will be returned but UA's connecting rules only allow one actual change of flight number connection, which will slightly reduce the miles earned. UA has a lot of through flight numbers, especially out of BOS. Just worth keeping an eye out for. Good find!

Edited to add: DL is closely matching.

Dl: Bwi-mex $287 ai (7.5 cpm)

Bookable on Orbitz and looks good for August and lots of dates next year.

Routes through ATL.

Not mileage run material, but a lot cheaper than other flights I've seen.

Watch out, you might only get miles credited for BOS-SEA direct then. Try to book different flight numbers if possible.
