DL: LAX-ATL-IAH RT 5270miles Dec-Feb $202 ai (3.83 cpm)

LAX-ATL-IAH-ATL-LAX for $202 on Delta.

Availability from early Dec through Feb.

Same day turns possible.

Also appears to be availability routing through MSP for the $202 as well.

Hope this helps someone ~

Good find OP! And great first post. Welcome to Flyertalk!! A quick update: the routing through MSP yields 5140 MQM @ 3.9 CPM and is $203 now.

Many options:

Google Flights and look at the calendar
DL's own website and search flexible dates
ITA Matrix and use the calendar feature

Thanks for the kind words

I've been a long-time lurker. Came across the fare a couple nights ago, and when I realized no one had posted it here I figured I should stop lurking and let you all know.

No hotel, just straight flying, I plan to catch and little shut eye on the red eye out of LAX and probably on the return (maybe take two Nyquil or maybe just Woodford Reserve

) Anyone else doing back to backs?

Yes: LAX-IAH (via ATL or MSP) - Dec 4, 9-11, 15-17, 34062 MQM @ 4.45 CPM. Not ideal but only way it worked with my schedule...how about you?
