Any way to route this via MIA?

This works in reverse as well. Lots of same day returns and 1 night up until December.
I cannot seem to get this to book on aa.com though, or expedia. Tried booking as one ways and r/t. Any help?

ATL/LAX on AA
 

I can't get it to book either.

Nice find OP. Works for me. Try Kayak ---> AA.com.

It is still pulling up at 243 total on every site. Im trying oct 5 with a 1 night stay or oct 26 with a 1 night. Departing atl. Ita has it at 210.

Got it. Booked atl-lax as ow, booked lax-atl as multi.

Update: Nvm it wont book it.

Works from SJC as well, through EOS. $200 rt is rare, but there (I've snagged a couple).

How do you book same-day returns?

Thank you for the post OP!!!!!! :)

I cover airports and airlines at the Los Angeles News Group, a chain of nine Southern California newspapers, including the L.A. Daily News, Long Beach Press-Telegram and Torrance Daily Breeze. I also blog at www.insidesocal.com/aviation.

For awhile, I've been wanting to tag along with a LA-based mileage runner for a story. My editors think what you all do is pretty cool, and I agree.

Would anyone who is doing this mileage run allow me to come along?

DM me or email me at [email protected]. Thank you!

No, the best is via ORD. There is one that books in F as well.

Perfect. Just got two Saturday turns; one at $200 a/i another at $210.

Are these same-day turns? Did you book them on AA.com? How?

TIA!

What does this even mean? A $200 fare that books into F?

Never mind, I see what you mean ($385 for F according to the other thread).

Cheapest F is a KUP at $1400+

Everything I see at this rate is via DFW as well.

Does anyone have any idea how to get my dates to work? ITA has them but aa and all OTA price it higher

The cheapest I'm now seeing for LAX-ATL same-day turns is $209.60 all-in, I just put an itinerary for August 20 on hold. August 21 is also available, then nothing until a bunch of Tuesdays and Saturdays in October. Only $199.60 fare I found is on November 2, leaving at 6 AM and with a 40-minute turnaround in ATL :eek: Still, $209.60 for a same day turnaround is about 5.3 cpm. Great find OP! ^

How do you book same day turns?

Not true. Check the Good Deal Premium thread. Check one way, not return.

Thanks OP.
Have some friends who need to get to LA to drop thier daughter off in college. They loved this fare!

On aa.com, when you click on "Plan Travel" and select "Flights", the "book a flight" screen has a "When Do You Want to Go?" tab where you enter in the dates and times you want to fly. Select the same date for both Departure and Return, then "Morning" for departure and "Evening" for return. Example:

Departure Date
July 1 Morning


Return Date
July 1 Evening

The system should then offer you flights that enable a same-day turnaround. Happy flying!
