now the price of a TATL Ticket has dropped below the price for a Ticket
within europe wow,
so what do you guess is responsible:
a) OIL Price
b) US Air at verge of bancrupcy (collect the quick buck)
c) Economy in Recession
I feel it is a bit like these ARS (Auction rate securities) sold until a few months, where you knew the risk was there, but chance and price were too tempting
And whats your opinion (US AIR page also say 158 USD)
Its a definite do, bu since the ticket ZRH-DUB costs more than this ticket it is probably not worth it

[QUOTE=xanthuos;10950117]Incredible deal. I only wish there was something like this for SkyTeam.
Monday & Wednesday departures in January & February with a one-night stayover. Tickets must be issued on/before 24 Dec 08.
$0.023/PM.
Wow!

Just found out that it allows 4 transfers each way
So technically (just tried on ITA you can do the following and bare in mind since it is international Travel you have got the 24hr and not 4hr rule for transfers)
the following is possible
dub-LHR-clt-bos-phl-dca-lga-pit-phl-lhr-dub
priced out the same on ITA
EVEN BETTER - ALSO WORKS VIA FRA
SO VarianT ABOVE VIA FRA and CLT miles out to (on M&M)
at max. approx. 13240 (w/o Exec Bonus) and with 16550
price according to ita is then 158, so will prob. be 170 or so in real
still very good
