Is a simple meta flight search too much to ask in order to find out what OTAs are out there?

Yes, with an app definitely and likely also with a digestivo.

One can 3x and drop ~$150 (as onfo said above) pretty easily too (and I'm no expert). Nowhere near what some 1x's can do with this.

Not sure if your comment was all encompassing..

3x possible to cut a bit more and even potential use depending on your travel plans. OTA prices in GBP.

Need some hints on the "app"/OTAs dumping the AB fares. Are you guys dumping the operator or any transatl JV codeshares?

AA / OW: USA - Northern Europe $332 ai rt
 
This is part of the YYZ- DUB fare. A huge Fuel Dump. From $315 rt. From almost all cities OW flies to directly from Europe. 3X to 1n

IB flights only earn 80% on some classes so be careful. Still 3 CPM or better on some routes. Available most of the year through April 2016.

Thanks, great job cracking the fare!

mspel Jun 16, 2015 4:25 pm

Some of the flights are not pricing correctly on AA so try booking via Iberia or Priceline to confirm low price.

Any luck from ATL?

jix Jun 16, 2015 4:36 pm

Does this work from YYZ as origin with a 3x?

mspel Jun 16, 2015 4:37 pm

YYZ can be an origin but it must also be a destination I believe.

coolchai Jun 16, 2015 4:38 pm

What dates/ destination did you see from LAX?

mspel Jun 16, 2015 4:39 pm

Maple Syrup to Pot of Gold for $332 rt OW.

chunky649 Jun 16, 2015 4:40 pm

I actually want to fly from/return to YYZ. What Northern Europe cities are possible?
