This is in fact a known trick, which you unknowingly applied. Thanks for thinking about sharing this here. Maybe take out the carrier name to avoid that google results will steer people to your post.

For some reason the price is extremely good for ex LEJ and its not ITAable, so without knowing it and actually looking it up on OTAs there is no way to find it.

Just found an extremely low bf:
RT DME FRA 5.50$ bf on HG/AB; 220$ YQ
normal price is 360-370$ RT AI, EoE permitted on all carriers

none of my usual suspects from my 3x list dumped it however

Any ideas for the 3x?

Get local residency Also look into LA flights, I had friends do OLCI with no ID check (your risk though) and sometimes there's great award sales intra countries.

BTW, while being there, you might start dreaming about new journeys.

Am I correct in assuming that it's only ex-C2 and not C1?
