JetBlue: JFK - SFO/LAX $57 RT - Oct 31 only
From the blogs. Looks like B6 is offering a Halloween special with $31 OW/$56 RT flights from JFK - LAX/SFO.
Books into P so a same day turn for $57 would yield 2586 SQ (P earns 50% on SQ) which I believe is ~2.2 CPM. Pretty good for anyone chasing SQ RDM miles via UA crediting or other avenues.
I can't take advantage but I was able to price this out for a hypothetical same day turn:
$56.38 USD
FLIGHT
New York City, NY (JFK)
Departs: Sat Oct 31, 7:00 AM
San Francisco, CA (SFO)
Arrives: Sat Oct 31, 10:40 AM
San Francisco, CA (SFO)
Departs: Sat Oct 31, 11:50 AM
New York City, NY (JFK)
Arrives: Sat Oct 31, 8:18 PM
Fare restrictions
1 Adult: $31.42
Taxes & fees $24.96
Sub-total $56.38 USD

Note that those SQ miles at 50% are not elite qualifying. From SQ's page on status:
Still a decent deal, but not the amazing bonanza it may sound like.
Elite miles in any class of service on Singapore Airlines, SilkAir, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia* or any Star Alliance airline

Alert the mods and request that it be moved to the Good Deals in Economy thread if you feel it isn't a mileage run. That said, for exceptionally priced deals, even if not status mileage earning, they generally have been left in the main forum with their own threads.

Earns 50% to SQ/HA/SA, but I agree, not a true mileage run worthy of a thread how many people are gonna jump on a 5cpm deal that's ONLY creditable to SQ that are NYC based...

Sorry. No different than collecting AA miles by renting a car.
