(Fare Gone)AF error fare: K class (upgradeable) BUD-OMA/TUL/OKC/LIT/ELP/SAT/AUS 196$+
Fare code: KKEEHU1
Base Fare: 42000 HUF = 195.62 USD
Valid 25MAR - 08APR, 01JUN - 30JUN, 23AUG - 30SEP, 08DEC - 24DEC on the flight from BUD to North America
1 transfer allowed in Paris, 1 transfer allowed in the US. 2 free stopovers. 6 month maximum stay.
Fare is fully changeable and refundable, books into K on AF so upgradeable if bought outside of France.
No interline connections on LH,BA,IB,LX,SK,AA,US,AA.
As for where to book it, you can use Travelocity if you are based in the United States. For Europeans, I would recommend Expedia.de. Opodo.de will work too, but is quite restrictive since you can only select 3 legs - and Expedia gives you 5.
Those sites have a ticketing robot running, resulting in ticket numbers usually being available within a few minutes. Travelocity for people based Europe might not work, as tickets for residents in those countries are issued manually most of the time; hence, it might be too late until this gets worked on by some human early next week.

I'm planning on going to the US West Coast this summer. Was trying to figure out if this was an option for me (based in HAM). However it isnt... booking a flight to BUD costs 100 EUR and then another from one of these air fields in the middle of the US to LAX another 150 oder 200, then its not really worth the hassle anymore.
Thanks for posting this though!

AF showed in TC search results for ELP, but got the "no service" message. Coming up at $823+ for ex-AUS, etal.
