I've just had a look on ITA at this stage.... as I already have my "F run" for the next trip locked down this one is of learning value rather than practical use..
I shall have another look!
And Thanks Colin!

The earning at bmi depends pretty much on an example !
For 48K miles you would have to spend 830 USD on their Buymiles programm.
Thats 300$ more than this flight is. So it would probably come to the opinion what your individual time and inconvenience is worth to you.

Further note that BD is soon limiting purchasing miles to 24k/year - so this fare would be beneficial to members wishing to fatten their mileage balance after 28 Feb 2009.

Does this fare earn 100% RDM and EQM on BD or 300%? As the fare basis is H, even though the booking class is A. I am not familiar with BD.

A lame newbie question but could you tell me what ITA is? I've googled it an can't seem to find anything about airfares.

Is there anyway to "watch" Biz fares on SkyTeam carriers on a certain route and dates?

A lot of useful information on this software in the MR and United MP forums. Do a search for ITA or ITAsoftware.

UA Hi-yield fare ONT - TPA
Curious to know what is a good hi-yield fare MR (F, A, P, C, D, Z, Y, B) in terms of CPM. (These would be good for GS re-qualification.)
In the example for ONT-SFO-IAD-TPA and return the total GS qualifying mileage is 7458 at a cost of $547.60 or 7.34 CPM. This seems rather extraordinary.
Anyone seen anything better?

Havind said that it is flying US
But then given a choice would you rather fly several hours in US F or any other airline in Y?
