Late Sept and Oct. I've only been trying MCO, LGA, and PHL.

URGH! I had it - wrote to friends about it before confirming and I think they've pulled it! Can anyone still get the fare NYC SEA or OAK?

On the phone with United agent now. The fares have been "changing before my eyes" she says.

Looks like this is gone... damn!

Edited to add: She says, "I'm very sorry to say, these fares are no longer available".

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!! ^ ^ ^
Thanks to the OP for the heads-up!!
I snagged three IAD-LAX non-stops (two over Labor Day weekend on 757s) for $129.61 R/T EACH (all-in)!!
I've already upgraded two of the trips with CR1s. I'm sitting here thinking there must be a mistake ... but I have the emails!!
That's 13728 EQMs for $388.83. Not bad!

Fares Can't be Gone - At Least not on the Online Travel Agencies

.Bomb they can do whatever they like, but it is highly unlikely.

Your probably experiencing lack of inventory.

I was so happy that I was able to book 3 RT LAX-IAD for 129 and another LAX-JFK for 129

Just as I was booking my 5th one, the fare went away : (

Thanks for OP though!!!!!

Can we assume that ALL of these fares are now gone?

Edit: To answer my own question NO
I was able to book SEA JAX $150. (all in) on Expedia. No joy on other destinations and dates so far.
