C1w - C2 $800
 
Hello! Right, I know a lot of people here hate newbs. I am one. Sorry.

I have a maple C1w - C2 route that is 1/4 base fare $200 3/4 surcharges $600. There are several carriers that are offering this extremely low fare, and they are only available at this price through FH or K. I've tried hundreds of combinations for 3x and 1x. I've studied up hard. I've analyzed blogs. Please, could some kind soul out there give me a hint as to what am I doing wrong? PM me?

Thx

p.s. I think its to do with the fare rules and combinality. Am I right?

Are you looking at Maple K class fare?
K class is End-on-End not permitted.

It's X / V class. Economy Discount. So I guess anything in that discount class won't work.

Fly and receive FinnAir and British airways service in combination from Scandinavia to New York and pay only € 96,38 All-in R/T.

Open Jaws to California and / or Florida for a few € more.

What works on BA won't work on UA. What works on UA C1-C2 may not work on UA C2-C4. You have a steep learning curve ahead of you.
C2-c3 on EK can be dumped 100%
With a 3x? Or still only with a 1x?

I managed to get a 100% dump on a flight from C2 to C3 on EK with a 1x in C3, too bad I cant fly the 1x because it's in C3. Does anybody in here have some good tips for me? I would really appreciate that.

but the rest of the yq is as high as the whole price few posts ago. It means strange OTA or card...

No strange card or OTA involved.

I happen to like to have New York City - London as my final used segment. If you do not want British Airways and only Finnair both ways, and travel when the sun is a little bit higher in the sky then your price should be € 55,49 All-in R/T.


Edit: Now € 54,51
