CDG,
I am traveling same dates as yourself from SFO-EZE. I was able to book the 11:15 AM departure SFO-IAD allowing less connecting time. You may wish to investigate this outbound flight.

Blimey!
Question about ITA search: when I do a month-long search PHX-EZE, 7/18 thru "30 days later", I see the $669 fares.
If I change the search dates to one day later, 7/19 thru "30 days later", those fares don't appear. Why?

If you still see it, could you PM me the details? Thanks!
ITA Hacker, you have PM.
I have reproduced my little glitch and saved screen shots.
This could well be 'user error' but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong if so.

What fare were you able to get, the $600ish one?

I'd love to do this, but just don't have the time nor the money right now. It's available from PDX for $690 most dates in July and a few in August. Doesn't even have to be a MR since it shows availability for dates like 7/22 to 7/31.

Also:

matrix.itasoftware.com -> login as guest -> "month long search" on the top then input the airports, start date for search and desired length of trip.

Or www.orbitz.com and at the bottom select "flexible days" and choose the option you want to use from there. Either weekend, "bonus days" or a 30-day search w/ a pre-determined number of days in mind.

YUP looks like its gone from SFO . I looked in July and August and the dates I had seen it for $640-700 are now 1k or more for L class. I was nice while it lasted.

Really looks like it's gone. Tried to price it from several cities, and the USD 195.00 Q-surcharge per way is now being added again.

Hence, I am moving this thread to Mileage Run Discussion.

Kind Regards

I still have my July 28 $609 AI fare on hold in my M+ account. I tried for purchase and the fare did not change, no repricing. This is weird.

I still have several more hours before the reservation autocancels itself.

What to think of this? Why does it not come up with the $+++ repricing as the ticket is not yet purchased? Why is it still showing at the same price as the original booking of yesterday?

Would there be a risk that they charge me extra when I show up at the airport if I buy it with the $609 price?

Did anyone ticket for the coming weekend (July 18-20) or the one after (July 25-27)? I have both on hold, and am trying to decide which one to ticket.

I've never been to BA, and with very limited Spanish, I'd be interested in potentially doing a little sightseeing and dining with a fellow FTer, if anyone is going to be around.
