Wow, amazing find!! This is not a BusinessFirst fare, it is a GlobalFirst fare. And, it is good until end of schedule, appears that you can only book for travel on Mon-Thu.

Amazing indeed... Too bad it doesn't work o/w, could use it for a RTW trip

Amazing fare, with no cancel or change fees.

Stopovers are allowed for $100 outside of Area 3 (North America) and HIP doesn't apply, so you could route via NRT and stopover there if you'd like.

Exceptional indeed. Thanks for posting, dieuwer2. I just booked one and now am trying to figure out whether a better routing is possible. Connections through ORD, IAD, etc. -> NRT are possible for $1XX to $4XX more.

So 250% CoS RDM + 100% RDM elite bonus?

A 1K could be looking at north of 65000 RDM's from this, if my math is right. (And it's early, so it might not be.) Wow.

E.g. BOS-SFO 2704 Miles, 2 class cabin on A fare is 175% COS bonus = 4,732
SFO-ICN 5664 miles, 3 class international in A fare is 250% COS bonus = 14,160

Total miles for non-elite = 37784
Total miles for 1k = 37784+16736 = 54,520

Early mornings and math. Should not be mixed.
