Euro MR on UA in early Dec?
Hi all,
I just got a slew of cheap fares from FC (FareCompare) from COS -> Germany. However, none of the fares they found are for quick turns. They all have a minimum stay of a week (or the fare jumps 600-1000 bucks) or so. Are there any tricks I'm missing to find a more reasonable fare for an overnight turn or something? I'm willing to pay a couple hundred bucks for the quick turnaround, but it's a no go if the fare jumps from $450 to $1500.
TIA for your help. For the record, I'm looking to get about 10000 miles out of this run.

I found several flights on US (from PHX) to Europe for about $550 all-in with just an overnight, or maybe it was because I put in leave Fri (arrive Sat morning), return Sun.
My main problem is that I can't find cheap hotels, at least Hilton properties; need to do some more research to get a room below $200/night ($100 would work) to make a run worthwhile.
