Happy 2014!
Please use this thread to post or to follow Economy Fares which are 'Good Deals' but where the cost per mile is more than 3-4 cents per mile, which is the usual upper limit for what is considered a true 'MR Deal'.
A few requests for posting in the thread:
-members posting their deals please post the city pairs/airport codes and pricing in the body of the post and not just in the post title as it isn't visible for those reading it on mobile devices (ETA: ...or in email alerts)
-some members may be unaware that you can subscribe to this thread and to do that you can go to "Thread Tools" at the top of the thread and click on "Subscribe to this thread".

You sure can get BA Avios for this however you won't get many. I couldn't find the booking class on this but I am betting based on a quick ITA search it is in N which would earn 30% of flown miles.
19326 * 0.30 = 5798
Flown miles * 30% = Avios Received for flight
$888/5798 = 15CPM
15CPM is pretty awful for a mileage run. I know AAdvantage has the same earning structure so would not be good for AA flyers either.
