The below is from our moderator (taken from the first post of the thread - bolding is mine). Feel free to add more if necessary / as needed.
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".

This may be somewhat violating the thread rules as Air Serbia isn't in any of the big alliance but still it's a reasonable deal:

I apologize if this has been posted recently, I know that it was in the past but then I seem to recall the fare disappearing.
I found flights from BOS Logan to PDL João Paulo II in Azores, Portugal as low as $268. I saw dates in November but it looked like there was wider availability. Bookable on AirFastTickets

UA: Austin (AUS) - San Francisco (SFO) $227 r/t n/s CPM: 7.5
UA: Austin (AUS) - San Francisco (SFO) $227 r/t n/s CPM: 7.5.
Those of us that live near Austin (AUS) rarely get to see a good n/s SFO flight with a CPM under 8.0. Most of the time it's ridiculously overpriced.

But you'll have to be a bit creative and/or burn some miles because... it's a O/W

Although, I first read the post as FNJ (Pyongyang), which made me confused for a little bit.
That led me to airkoryo.com.kp, which led to something interesting:
All fares loaded to airkoryo.com.kp are $0, in Y or J, any date, any destination (i.e. PEK, VVO, SHE to/from FNJ). The only charge is the $9-10 USD ticketing fee.
Pretty much useless to everyone, but it's there.
