I'm not doing this as an MR, but I did get this in as a mid-summer vacation at $1280. ^

$1,100 if you want to do same day turns; $1,280 if you want to make a vacation out of it. The $200 difference comes from the United Kingdom Air Passengers Duty. I guess you don't have to pay it if you're transiting.

MCO-LHR (through BOS) is still there at $1513.

added: Actually, BOS-LHR is there, too, at least for the dates I tried, at $1499.

Well I booked BOS -LHR on Delta for $1500. Have a BOS CDG on AA on hold. I guess I have to make a decision tomorrow. (I think I can cancel DL on the 24 hour deal) Would rather go to CDG, but also would rather have the DL miles.....

This is a great fare out of MCO... is it on UA metal?

If it was, it appears to be gone. I just checked for an Aug date and the lowest base fare is $ 2K ++ on UA.

Correct. I was extremely unlucky on my numerous date selections on ITA. Got to use "by month" search more.

Thanks OP! Managed to get a nice 1 1/2 week trip to Paris from 8/31 to mid-Sept since I wanted to be in France for the Medoc marathon anyways. Routing through MIA and confirming in to Biz class was only $300 more than my held economy ticket (still economy for Domestic portions but submitted for EXP upgrades) that I would have had to have used eVIPs and hope for an upgrade. Much nicer to have the TATL segments all confirmed at the start

Is this fare still slated to end, for sale purposes, tomorrow, 3/16?

The galling part of this is that despite the routing going via Toronto or Montreal, flights from Toronto and Montreal are still double the price.

Can't believe I'm actually thinking of driving to BOS so I can fly back home and then to Europe!

Delta fare sale was extended until March 31 and includes BOS/MIA/JAX/TPA/MCO (and maybe some others I missed.

Fly by Aug 31, 2011.
