[PREM FARE GONE] LATAM/ JAL NRT-SYD-SCL-GIG Business Class $2272 RTN
 

LATAM/ JAL NRT-SYD-SCL-GIG Business Class $2272 RTN (that is a lot of flying up front)


Prices out on a couple of OTAs. I also noticed some fares to Asuncion from Narita as well. I do not have time to search more as Iam between flights in Chicago right now. Credit to MightyFares search engine.

Amazing fare!

Not workable on Expedia/Orbitz. Can be booked directly from LATAM USA

Fare rules from cheapoair for routing through Australia

That's not a Business fare basis...I'd be very suspicious of this ticketing and getting flown in business... (but it sure is tempting to try!)
Dominicus where did you see the J booking code? LATAM site (which is no longer pricing it)?

Routing through US is J class though.

Where are you all pulling this up from? Can't see it on ITA

expedia can price.


NRT-JFK-LIM-SCL-GIG-SCL-SYD-NRT


A circle of Pacific

Yes LA site. Both via LAX or SYD was priced one hour ago

duplicate

Managed to grab one on Priceline. Expedia errored and repriced it to $10k

[nevermind]

Any links?

Managed to book via Expedia without triggering a reprice. Ticketed and able to locate on LA Manage Booking however it appears seats for the return sectors all go in Y. I suspect this might be an OTA error and won't stick.

can use google flight, then book on LATAM. play around with date.

This was the best I could find on Matrix but it doesn't map out properly to the booking engines.

BASIC SEASON ECONOMY UNRESTRICTED FARES K APPLIES FOR ROUND TRIP FARES FOR ADULT

looks like maybe a fare-table coding problem

I'd probably do it, if i knew that I could still earn AA miles/status on LATAM by September next year

It was a great deal but there's too much uncertainty, as LATAM has horrible customer support, and not sure what their presence in oneworld and the accrual charts will be like next year.

I priced this without issue last night.

Booked this morning! But looks dead now :(

My routing is similar, yay for the GRU stops to reduce the economy time from 5h to 1h each way.

I built both of my tickets into circle trips, going south to oceania first and coming home via north america.

Still available. The link below is for KIX-SYD-SCL-GRU (Qantas / Latam mix). Bookable on Ex....

Inputting the fare I found on Matrix (post 18, above) into the LATAM website's multi-city tool returns flight choices for all flights, except the NRT-JFK and LAX-NRT flights. The booking engine says no flights are available that day. When I select alternate dates, the same error appears. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I fixed that issue by putting the first sector as NRT-LIM and the last as SCL-NRT. Now, though, I can't select a flight on the middle two sectors because they are only Y flights and I've selected premium business. It won't even allow me to select Y flights on those sectors.

Priceline just sent me a notification about a schedule change, though it hasn't been made obvious what the change was. Anyone else?

Are you able to share how you booked your ticket?

The first word of the message you quoted is a good clue. I booked via Priceline.

I booked through expedia but the latam flights showed economy seat selection so I cancelled immediately. Less attractive itinerary is (or was) available to book directly on LA web site.

I asked how you booked, not where.

I built the itinerary in Matrix, and use powertools to book via Priceline. Does this answer the question? Not sure what else there is I can say about it.

Largely, yes. Although it doesn't help but I'm nonetheless appreciative. As I mentioned in post 18, when I build my itinerary in Matrix and use powertools (at least I think it's powertools; the Violentmonkey extension), the fare doesn't map across to any of the booking engines. Expedia fails. Cheapo's fare is several thousand. Priceline's fare is several thousand and it gives the outbound in business and the return in economy. AA prices at several thousand. Hipmunk, Momodo and Skyscanner all revert to an economy booking. Kayak will, at best, give a two-sector itinerary each way (mine is five sectors out and four back).

Have you tried changing the Cabin function at the top of the page before clicking through?

The outbound in J / return in Y thing is probably just a rendering error on Priceline. If you don't expand the flights selected it shows the cabin based on the first segment of the flights. Since the first segment of the return on this is in Y, it thinks the entire return is in Y. If you expand you'll see it actually shows Y/J/J/J etc.

I had no idea that was even a thing. Thank you. I'll have a play with that.

Can you elaborate by what you mean on "expand the flights"? If I click through to Priceline, most of the time it will go straight to the price confirmation page, not the page where you select your flights. Having just done that again, I get this:

I'm not sure where or how to expand the flights. (Incidentally, this itinerary prices at $6K; Matrix has it at $2.33K.)

Got it, it does indeed seem like it's not pricing correctly on Priceline for you. I didn't have this issue.

seems no more K fare, now shown H fare, around 400 more.

Where are you seeing prices?

both on ITA matrix and latam
