UA IAD-LAX nonstop $313 ai
Tried on April 27th (Saturday) and there were plenty of e+ seats left and upgrade space. Day trip come back on same day leave IAD at 8:20 (753) come back into IAD at 9pm (320). 1 hr 30 min layover. ;)

Thats some horrible cpm... Gotta be close to 7
|
Yeah, I accidentally get a better CPU than this on many of my transcons.
|
this is bad for a pure mileage run, but for a quick 1 night visit to LA, not bad at all
way better than those same day turnarounds to wichita |

That's what it was meant to be. A quick one day trip or same day return. Nothing like a mileage run I just posted it here because its most applicable.

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...rums-work.html A general guideline for topics: Good in Mileage Run Deals: 1) Airfare deals that offer uniquely high value in terms of either miles/points to $$ or expedited status 2) Discussion within the individual threads of ways to benefit from the deal 3) The threads are not to be used for meta-discussion of general mileage run issues |

You should post this in the Good Deals thread then possibly. MR Deals is for fares that have a high value; this is just a regular fare.
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...rums-work.html He11 No, this isn't even good for that AA has $258 T/W/Sa and I didn't even find that as MR worthy this is a lousy fare for this forum Unless its in F.. is it? |
It is!?!
I booked three of them. [ /sarc] |
Ya know, I actually have to assign more value to same day turns like these.
If you have to spend an extra $20.00 on airport parking or $80 on a hotel overnight (or 20,000 HHonors points), that - at least in my mind - detracts from the CPM value that is automatically assessed. But to each his own. |

I'm doing a 6,000-mile transcon same day turn next month for $160 r/t ai. That is a good value. |

The problem wasn't that it's a same-day turn, the problem was that it's a terrible value.

Some don't though, some find ways around that stuff but in the end apples to apples is the a/i cost of the flight and then breaking it down to cpm |
The day this fare becomes a MR deal is the day the game is over.
