- Fare feels too good to be true? Don't call the airline!!!!!!
- Double check that the fare is actually in Business or First as some online search engines or OTA's confuse booking classes on some airlines.
- Post as many details as possible about the First / Business fare, including fare class, fare basis, one-way / roundtrip, sales channel, sample dates & total price, including taxes.
- Post the details within the thread itself and not in the post title field as any information typed here cannot be seen by members accessing the thread using mobile devices.
- Refrain from posting fare requests or engaging in off topic debates such as fare trends, specific aircraft configuration or visa requirements
- The deeply discounted international fares discussed here are almost always specific to a certain country of origin, so don't ask if it works in reverse (e.g. a SFO-LHR-SFO fare usually won't work LHR-SFO-LHR). Domestic fares more commonly work in reverse.
- Last, but not least, Don't call the Airline!

Interested in the ex-KEF CZ fare too. For simple trip to CAN, bookable well into next summer, optionally overnight in AMS on the way out, return via LHR but also found via CDG or AMS. Codeshares with KL and AF available for a few extra quid.

Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

DL fly's to KEF from JFK.
Beware of CZ's J product as well. The hard product is ok (seats like old NW WBC) but the soft product is terrible at best. Food is awful and choice of 2 Trader Joe 2 buck chuck quality wines, champagne worse than andre and for Booze, Chinese whiskey or Bacardi Rum. They have never heard of Vodka. Don't expect the FA's to understand English well either. I just flew RGN-CAN-AMS in J 3 weeks ago on the infamous RGN fare. Had I actually paid the going rate, I would have been really upset.

KEF still working.
I noticed OSL-VIE-PEK r/t for $1658 USD on OS. That seems like a pretty good deal, too. Dates in March. Rules aren't quite as good as the KEF fare.
