UA: LAS-MUC, 329USD all-in, UA-LH-US metal

Las Vegas, Nevada - Munich, Germany

Thanks to info shared on another thread, this little cutie-pie showed up. I booked this for an outbound Thursday and inbound Monday, in March, on Travelocity. Other city pairs may be possible, I'll post fare rules, if I can find them.

If you fly to FRA you can make a bit more out of it because the routing is via SFO !

How do you come on 329 bucks? I always get 392 !

Works fine all the time from NOV till MAR !

I could only swing the 329USD by using an outbound Thursday and inbound Monday, but that worked for the two weekends I tried, in March. Two nights on the ground might be hard to handle, in the purist sense, but if the difference is enough to make a dent in a hotel bill, it could be worth it.


Regarding vv fares, I did see this fare on ExpertFlyer.com:
QFLYDE1 DE Q One-Way 203.00 USD (++, of course)

How can the fare be $203 OW and $329RT? I know that EF includes some tax and fees but not all of them.This might be a mistake.Furthermore Q is a high booking code on LH,so there must be an error.
