[PREMIUM FARE GONE] HU: BKK-PVG-BOS $512 Business one way
 
Just booked BKK-PEK-BOS in business for $512, one way. Ticketed in I class. Available for Mondays in March and most of April. Strange fare. There's a 7-hour layover in PEK but can't beat the price. Can book via the airline website (18,000 THB) or slightly more on Orbitz and others.

I just found Feb 22 using Google Flights. $18,000 Baht ticketed on Hainan = $495

Cool, fare is ILOW7BK. This will earn about 9,106 AS RDM if you credit to Alaska.

That's an amazing fare. Wide open in April, a few days in March. Great find!

I have a PEK-BKK on HU in business booked, and afaict it's going to be 5 hours on some pretty manky old chairs. Looks like the Boston leg is a 787...

How to get home afterwards? :-D

Great find! I'll be too busy to bite on this, but oh so tempting!!!

I know I've become a spoiled brat when I look at HU's B787 C seat and thumb my nose at the deal... :rolleyes:

If you're going to spend 13.5 hrs in it, needs to be comfortable.

Pretty interesting, if you look at a listing in THB of all one way fares HU file, you will see what I mean.
Dates in the fare:
PERMITTED 10FEB 16 THROUGH 26APR 16 OR 01NOV 16 THROUGH 31DEC 16 ON THE OUTBOUND TRANSPACIFIC SECTOR
But I cannot find anything In Nov/Dec, actually I cannot find the PEK-BOS flight then, which is required in the routing rules (it seems to not be listed after 29Oct). IS HU481 not going to be operating then?

Edited to add: ouch, 4 hours on a 737 redeye BKK-PEK... that's a hard sell!

Bonaventure Jan 9, 2016 11:55 pm

But doesn't BKKPEK book into first? Depending on the code it may be well compensated in points!

Great find. Thanks for sharing.

Great deal OP... Would be all over it if dates worked for me.

Books into I like the rest, which earns 125% on EY or HU. AS is a possibility too, but only 100% there
