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".

Ok be kind, this is my first post for a fare and I just hope it is in the right place. Was searching for a place to vacation in December and came across this that looks really good.

Dec 6 YYZ-CDG-TNR-CDG-YYZ Dec 15

$1035 on Delta (Air France)

Could leave a day early and get to spend the day in a european city too with routing through AMS. Pretty solid price to Madagascar.

That's a great first fare post! Its about 5.6 CPM, which is a good deal.

Also, it's available for Wednesday departures in January and February for $1001, with short layovers in CDG. Madagascar is typically not somewhere you see deals to.

Hi, long time no see

Thx for posting this fare. I can see wide availability for next month but unfortunately not at this price during European autumn break. It also seems that DL is matching this fare (slightly over 700 dollar).
