UA: SJC-BOS $134 RT (also in reverse)

To my surprise, this isn’t a basic economy fare (BE is $40 MORE each way). Also bookable as one-ways for $67 each…seems to have decent availability-some trips over weekends are possible…

Thank you! Grabbed one to visit family over the weekend.
Times are terrible for same-day turns before anyone even tries.

This is really great price that haven't been seen for quite some time. I just booked 4 RT until December 2018 for my family visit to the lovely SJC area.
Thanks for sharing this information with us.

You're right
How can these shady OTAs offer such a discount without losing money?

EDIT: Just checked my UA receipt and it looks like the total was $107.90, but then an additional $16.10 was charged, bringing the total to $124. However. Exploretrip only charged me $108.

It seems to have gone down $5 each way on united.com as of this morning...now pricing at $62 one way or $124 round trip.

Just pop SJC-BOS in Google flights and look at the calendar. It's all over the place:
