Golden Gate to Hakozaki $692 ai post 3X
Golden Gate to Hakozaki Shrine for $692 ai after 3X. Not the usual suspects as far as airline is concerned, but if you accumulate on this carrier, it maybe worthwhile.

Dates : April/May

Clocks at roughly 5 cpm

I gave it my best and can only get down to $407. Kudos on 374!

If I can ask, is that a mix of the 68 and 132 BFs? 2x132 leaves very little room to spare for the 3x and I can only find one flight which "should" do the trick for 374 but I cannot get it to work.

I see the large Luftie portion and really want it. But I can't find Hexerei and Behendigkeit. Does somebody have a hint, please?

By large portion I mean about 40 % No code encrypted in Hexerei nur Behendigkeit - just a German phrase meaning something like Not Witchcraft just handyness. Difficult to translate as the German language is a very rich language, richer than the majority of other languages.

SAS has with a few exceptions been notoriously difficult to dump. Has anyone tried their hand on them recently? I have something of personal interest on fairly fixed dates .

Thank you very much, WWE! I'll keep trying.
Yeah ... just like Luftie is richer than the majority of other airlines.

I have been able in past to dump SK but only in reverse and only on codeshares.
SYD - CPH as I recall. Don't waste too much time.

Can also confirm this price on ITA but have not tried OTAs either.

Extreme routing: European Airlines will give "FREE" One-Way to SIN/BKK/ICN/PVG/PEK
Amazing combinability and extreme routing on Double Open Jaw.

European Airline will give you "free" C2-BKK/SIN if you fly from certain C2A1s in Southern C2 to C1A1 and return from C1A2 to C2A2. Then the C2A2 to BKK/SIN/ICN will be at virtually no additional cost. Stop-over of long(er) duration in C2A2 possible. There is even a possibility of seeing Bengal Tigers or a Punjab Palace or Indian Ocean Paradise Island or remote Asian Capital at the end your trip if you choose the right airport(s). €518.00 - €615.00 All-in.
That was all very clear - right ? .
The regular and disciplined followers of this thread will know immediately.

There is even ONE remote C3 airport which will lower the price by € 90 to €525. That was very clear.

Wow, great find! Could you tell me if this is findable on ITA? Many thanks
