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".

Us: Sfo-muc, $706, 5.3cpm
Sort of belongs with the other US airways HNL-BRU ones, but MUC was not one of the cities previously mentioned. SFO-MUC during Oktoberfest for $706 on US Airways via PHL on the outbound and PHL or LHR on the return. 13,264 miles. Late September - October is open
Can do combine with open jaw into MUC and out of TXL and it's a bit more expensive at $780.

$342 ex-PWM on Sept 5-6. It's actually a reasonable weekend trip, given that you arrive at noon on Friday and leave Saturday night, provided that you get any sleep at all on a redeye.

This is a super-late reply, but thanks for the heads up on this. We were able to book 4 ppl RT on those flights during the sale. I'll gladly trade $19 pp for ~7 hours in the car, on the turnpike and I-95!
