Last edit by: Sykes
  • 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!

AF: YYZ-SIN ~$3100 ai

Sample dates Feb. 23 - Mar. 9.

Options from Toronto or a few other Canadian cities to either HKG or SIN via CDG or AMS. Lots of dates over the next couple months.

Shame I'm already going to SIN on an award booking those dates!

In accordance with todays sharing theme and TK travel, JNB-IST-KUL in J/D for around 2000/2300 EUR all in. As usual with TK, stopover allowed along the way, in each direction.

This is a standard NH/UA business excursion fare (PX43US6 for anyone who's curious). Stopovers are an extra USD100 each. Be warned that this books into P class, meaning it is not upgradeable and earns you fewer EQMs (or the equivalent) in many FFPs.

I was able to price it out on the Malaysia site in April. Books into D. Not bad if you need a one-way fare!
I just wanted to highlight dll's excellent post from 2012 with one-way fares from India to the US on MH. The ex-India fares are more flexible in terms of stopovers and are also valid to destinations other than LAX (e.g. JFK, ORD, etc.) via JL codeshares from TYO. (Example: BOM-KUL-NRT-JFK for USD1,820 OW all-in.) Note that JL is rolling out its new Sky Suite business product on JFK and other routes this year and next so this could be a good fare to use to try it out.

Dang - got this for US$1192 all in one way in Feb (stop in KUL, couldn't get an online stop in NRT but only quickly checked out fare) - or US$2198 return. Not bad at all.

Also from PNH. Thanks for highlighting.

Since when are fares in excess of $3K on this route "good' - I would say they are just normal

If you throw in YVR, that will give a very respectful cpEQM after the elite EQMs got kicked in. $3577RT ai.
