PHL-SIN $557+ on FC but I cannot book it...

Found this on FC appears valid on UA/AA... it shows "$557" and when it goes to Kayak it pulls up the fare approaching $800. I've mixed days, tried the month long, 6-8 day search on ITA and nothing....

Anyone else have any luck?

I guess the "hidden" AA fuel surcharges push that figure to 800.

I checked UA and I suspect you're right....

Usually it just shows as the price + fuel surcharge...

Tax is around $50~100
Feul surcharge is around $150

however, 4/eqm isn't that bad

*shameless plug*

We (farecompare) just launched our new beta today. We rewrote the whole surcharge calculation code - so hopefully its a lot better - we also have a tax estimation module to get an approx out the door price.

I checked the PHL-SIN fare and its showing up at $801 out the door on the beta site.

I do like the new layout ^

Gotta get the "maps" link to work off the main splash page if you were not aware.
