Happy 2017!

$383 is still there including PDX connections. https://www.google.com/flights/?sour...AS30;a=AS;eo=e

Seems to work from SFO as well for $55USD. A good o/w fare for sure if expectations are set low.

Or you could do a RT from SFO for only $150

update: RTs appear to be gone now

SE: LAX-CDG $172 one-way

XL Airways France, dates in Sep. Probably no miles.

CDG-LAX is 213eur.

Includes a checked bag and meal (in contrast to Norwegian), but very tight 3-3-3 configurations in coach on an A330.

EDIT: my first deal stolen by SF in under 30 mins!

Norwegian's 737 MAX routes (which, by the way, they will just fly regular 737's from Boeing delays) are wide open with $99 one-ways all throughout summer.

DL: LAX-BRU $379 (about Sept - March 2018)

I first saw this on Airfarewatchdog, but it goes even lower than their $390, to $379. It looks pretty open. Fares at $420 start in September. Limited around Christmas, then start again in January, through March. Connections in JFK or ATL, or both. Gets you about 12,700 miles, or 2.9 cpm. Not really a mileage run because it looks like a minimum stay of about 5 days.

You might want to check your calculations. People would kill for .29 cpm

EUG-KUL $697, r.t. DL/NH

EUG-SLC-SEA-NRT-KUL-NRT-PDX-SEA-EUG on DL & NH (NRT-KUL-NRT segments) 1/16-1/18. GF has it for $701, $697 in ITA Matrix with 20hr layover in PDX. Bookable on DL through book with matrix.

https://goo.gl/flights/pZWU

NH segments are intra Asia/Japan-international in K so should be 100% PQM to UA. Total would be ~3.9cpm- 6714 miles to UA, 11091 to DL.
