Happy 2016!

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:
  • When posting 'Good deals' fares: 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.
  • Note that you can subscribe to this thread: go to "Thread Tools" at the top of the thread and click on "Subscribe to this thread".
  • This is not a fare request thread. Any fare requests will be deleted.

That's 50-70% on Etihad miles.

Seeing some good deals on WAS-BOM on *A in the low $600s. Looks like it works out to about 4cpm however it does book into "K" on UA which is only 50% credit - although I gather you can credit to SQ for 100%. The fare rule is "KLNC5NS" and it seems like it's valid through April with outbound on Tuesday-Saturday and a minimum stay through Sunday after arrival. The fares also need to be ticketed by tomorrow. Hope this helps someone!

UA/NH: USA-RGN, $827 rt ai

UA/NH: USA-RGN, from $818 rt ai

Lots of locations.

from MSP -- $830
from ORD -- $818
from ATL -- $830
from RDU -- $830.

from MSP the cpm was 4.3.

Probably many more. Remember the visa cost -- my trip to Myanmar back with the crazy RGN currency deals was one of my favorites of my lifetime.

$29 one way (for positioning!) but $51 round trip JFK-LAX (same day) if you're into bluepoints...

I think I got 24 points when I took a $24 JetBlue airfare a few years ago (SEA-LGB return). No complaints at all about the low point total, but does it still operate on a per-dollar basis?

I was under the impression it was always that way, or at least for a very long time.
