Well BF in this moment are high ex this c1 city but maybe they will change so it is always good to have new dump in the arsenal . Moreover for people who live in this c1 city the dump still be good because they don't need positioning flight.

I forgot to write that the dump is with a 3X.

C1-C5

C1w-C5s BS of $399. Loads of fat, but a certain 3x brings it down to $886 (all in). Wonder if anyone else has had better luck with another combo?

While not a steal, it does offer a good load of miles/EQMs before the year end.

c2n-c5w

newbie can't get rid of ANY fat off 550 euro c2-c5 return (c5w airline codeshare on c2n airline metal). BF is only around 120 Euros. Rules state AOs OK. Is a trim even possible or should I give up?

Also need *A for c3e-c2n but can't see anything.

1. Don't code your question. What are you hiding when it's a full publicly available fare?
2. Look at the EOE, not AO.

even if it's not so good as 3x, unfortunately this 3x is going to be off before some of these idiots will remove it!

An to answer to your second question, I believe such a fare was posted a few days ago.

Some JJ domestics on the JJ EZE fares from FRA could make useful world cup flights. Though you'd have to make some pretty heroic predictions about match results

Not surprisingly the German Blogs and Polish Blogs are pretty popular with (surprise!) Germans and Poles, particularly those lacking the patience or cryptic skills to follow this forum. Somehow I don't think those running the blogs are going to pay much attention to mails from FT's angry birds.

And in the meantime, many happy Germans will have benefitted from the fare. If you are interested in some happiness yourself, why not simply book the flights, then keep you blood pressure down by not worrying about what other people are up to.

found something interesting that I had never seen before. I do not know if it is compressed or if it has a specific name. It's quite efficient
c1-c2 ST 290 $

C1e-C2 on *A €250,94 AI (no compressed strike involved)

I'm sure that the price can be less but I have to play a little bit with the trick :P


Indeed me and WWE wrote some weeks ago about this fare but for some reason we didn't mention this possibility.

edit: C1w-C2 *A € €243,62 AI
