I got one too!

I paid a little more $191 but with elite bonus and 3,000 mile promotion brings my cost to about 2.1 cents a mile. Not bad!

Northwest has Matched too!

Surprised no one has mentioned this.

The Northwest base fare is $129, many dates available through January of 2007.

I have so far been unable to find any itinerary at this fare with anything other than stops through msp or dtw, so all NWA roundtrips appear to be < 5000 miles RT. However, I was able to book for $203 all-in an open jaw bwi-lax and sna-bwi (return with delta codeshare flights to atl and dtw) which boosts the eqm to over 5500 miles, which is what I needed.

Continental itineraries are no good for this fare for Worldperks looking to qualify at the next elite level - this fare only gives 50% flight miles for eq purposes with NWA.

As I needed to go to LAX anyways, I was just looking at this route from BWI even though I am DTW based because of the $49 one way fares from NWA, Southwest, and Airtran, I might be able to make a few extra miles on this and push gold this year now.

Anyways, I saw a few routings BWI-DTW-IND-LAX and return if you do not want a sameday turnaround in LAX. As I needed to be there for a few days, I was able to find outbound, BWI-DTW-IND-LAX and return, LAX-IND-DTW-BWI. I will then look for a cheap one way on the above mentioned airlines to get to and from BWI, or on the way back just not take the last DTW-BWI portion of the itinerary.

I'm only able to get $318 (all in). Which dates seem to be the best for the cheapest CO fares?

Oh well. Maybe someone should close out this forum then....so others don't think the fare is still around. Just a thought.
