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!

Still waiting for *A to match the SCL or EZE fare from any jump point in the lower 48...and still not taking AA's bait

Please post if anyone finds this fare on a *A long haul (not Copa).

I doubt there will be a *A match at this point as the AA deals are now gone. I was hoping they would, that's why kept placing itineraries on hold with AA but they didn't bite. In fact, I haven't seen many *A deals recently - a lot of ST and some OW, mostly AA but very few *A.

JJ (Tam) has the fare - look for UA metal codeshares.

Thanks for the post but I can't seem to find anything for close to a $1000 in Business out of NYC over the next 2 months. Cheapest I see on TAM is $2200. Can you share where you're seeing this - what are the routes/dates? Thanks.

Darn. It's a shame the JJ match was never posted in this thread I stopped looking for matches after the first few days.
