Welcome to FT!
And great first post and find

Not seeing this on Ita matrix or aircanada.com. Where did you find this?

EmailKid

I see it on P for 581, 6.19-6.25

I'm seeing this on Matrix without the AC code. It looks like you can do the TATL on LH and UA metal as well for a little more. This was for June going into early July - checking for more.

Thanks OP!

Most booking sites, not on ita

Welcome to FT!
Why not use AC metal?

Yeah, it's a bit squirelly, but it's out there. It seems like there's also a high YQ -- can anything be done about that?

If not, it's just a very good leisure fare to get you across the pond this summer.

DUS also available

Doesn't LH get you with their 50% earning on the deep discount fares?

its more like 0%

What fare buckets do these book into on LH?

It does show up on ITA with month-long EWR-BER or EWR-DUS searches restricted to AC.

Seems to be a K fare, so if crediting to UA, best to avoid LH metal (UA and AC metal options are available).

funny how AC K fare gets 100% with LH M&M but LH/UA K fares get 50% w/M&M.

I'm seeing a fair amount of two stop availability, but that generally involves LH metal YYZ-FRA...
