UA: ORD-PEK from $756 ai RT (fr 5.3cpm; min. stays & visa required)

Only 2 dates in Sept / Oct. both Tuesdays.

There is a visa and seem to need two nights there.

Good find! If you may stay in PEK for 9 days, there will be a lot of availability in Sept, including Sunday departures.

I did a 6 to 9 night search on ITA and see fares as low as $756 on October and November. Looks like you can play with routings to make it better.

Not quite a MR ($0.053/mile) but a great find thepla!!

Thanks

I am routing through EWR both ways and am a little over 5 cents. I have to get another Visa but I really enjoy China and thinking about pulling an award to go to XIAM.

All in all I am happy I have a great tour guide that I always use and she always comes up with something different.

I would recommend discussing your itinerary in the China forum. The ambassadors that hang out there are great and will help a lot!

Is it because HU is entering the market?

Very likely. But HU is known for claiming the route but not flying.
