Weird sale though. It wasn't even mentioned on their website. My brother and sister in law booked a trip as well.

Many thanks to the OP, jaymar01!!^ ^ ^

Got SMF-ORD-CDG-ORD-SMF for the week of 8/20/07 - 8/27/07 for $589, all-in. It's $1272 today. That, and the GLON2 award at the Paris Hilton will make for a very pleasant trip.

This will be the first time I've been in Paris in the summer time. The previous two trips were in March, and it will be nice to be there when the plants are blooming, and you don't need to be so bundled up.

Paris

My first time in the summer also. I had one trip in March and one in May. I'm looking forward to this.

Munich

By the way for the all the Munich Oktoberfesters - what are you doing for accommodation? It is quite expensive. I have started looking around already.

I trust that everybody will enjoy their trips.

the LH fare BOS-FRA, which I booked yesterday, expired last night, according to the fare rules. $476 all in for August is an excellent fare

I am going with friends who used to live there that have friends that currently live there. In other words, I'll be passing out on someone's couch.

Am I the only one who took advantage of this over the Xmas and New Year break?

Perhaps. Low W fares to FRA are easy to come by during the winter so the big shock was seeing a fare this low during the summer.

OT: UA Lounge in FRA: Pre or Post-Security?

Now with the flight booked, wondering about the Red Carpet Lounge: Is it pre- or post- security in FRA? (can't tell from either fraport.com or UA.com)

Why go to the RCC when you can go to the SEN lounge?

No, I took advantage of it as well. The strange (and great) thing about this fare is that there were none of the usual restrictions around the holidays. The cheap W fares usually aren't valid after approx Dec 21 - 25 but this fare was wide open through the end of the year.

Looking forward to Xmas in Paris!

Post security in the C terminal. It's tiny and likely to be crowded before a UA flight, but the beer is cold. I've tried the Sen and Business lounges (both *G) in the B terminal but they were very crowded last time I was there. The word is that the LH *G lounges in the A (intraEurope?) terminal are the best but there is an additional security screening to return from them.
