Happy 2017!

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'.

Seeing various southeast cities to LHR on DL for $500 the next couple months.

Other destinations available on AA for $350 (MAD, MXP, etc.), even from ATL.

Apologizes for not being more specific, but there are too many combinations to mention.

UA has $191 SJC-EWR-SJC for a few weekdays at the end of March and beginning of April. You could return through IAH for $14 more if you don't do a day-trip.

Nice find for an early-in-the-season mileage run. I'm seeing same-day turns on March 28, 29, and April 4. Too bad I won't be in town to take advantage of them.

Unfortunately I couldn't get this work, although I didn't spend a huge amount of time fiddling around with it. I find it amazing how Inverness is now connected to planet Earth, now I don't live in N Scotland any more. Getting anywhere, even within Britain, used to be a nightmare from the north.
