I thought NUC were an artificial "basket" currency, something like SDR.

NUC = Neutral Unit Currency is a way of determining unit value of fares (and other charges) using a conversion conforming with IATA.

I cant come up with the fare either.. Travelocty gives me an error and Expedia prices up at 700+... only curious so it doesnt matter..

Nope, that's the moon/month sign. No idea about the rest...

Damn. I can't believe how rusty the little Chinese I know has gotten. I knew it had something to do with dates though.

AFAIK in terms of value, they are close.

I found that expedia.ca won't sell to me in the UK and expedia.co.uk shows it but for an extra 100 GBP.

Orbitz it showing 243 all in if you request e-tickets. (Plus LON-ZRH = 112)
They seem to be willing to sell to UK residents and other EU countries. Never bought from Orbitz before though.
There are a few outbound - inbound dates within the 4-14th June range available.

Other *A flyers may like to note that SA are offering 349++ Lon-CPT/JNB until the 12 June 2006.

Orbitz is fine. Owned by cendant, uses ITA on the front end and worldspan as the booking engine.
