That's got to be the lowest fare in this market (other than perhaps on Spirit) in like forever.

Too bad availability is only for a few days in November.

It's definitely a Spirit match. AA is apparently not interested (at least not yet).

.3 cpm? I'd recheck your math. Using milecalc.com I see 10 CPM for a one way, 5 CPM for a round trip, not counting any elite multipliers.

The math seems to be correct to me - 1302 miles each way (which is the PQM that US awards for the route), for a total fare of $88 all-in round-trip, yields a CPM of $0.033.

Fare also works DFW-PHL for Dallas-based MRers.

....that would be a DPM.... which equals a CPM of 3.33

And that makes economic sense how? I guess you're just looking for a couple thousand miles to requalify. Not the cheapest way to do that, of course, at least from the PHL end of things.

But it's a great fare, if you need/want to actually go to DFW or PHL.
