Doesn't look to me as if same-day returns for $539. Best I see is Thursday-Monday (sample dates April 16-20).

Beautiful. Make a weekend out of it, at least. Tokyo is simply a fabulous city.

All TPAC segments must be Mon-Thur, so no Sunday.

You have to be really creative to get a good deal on an upgradeable fare from SFO to NRT. I still haven't found anything cheaper than about $1300 all-in (for the dates I need in July) and even that took a lot of work.

Dates in June are thin but the fare exists. Typically must fly out Tues/Wed and back in during a corresponding Tues/Wed.

Good find. Thanks!

Nice find.

Did anyone see this fare in late July or August? The latest I could find the fare for was for departure on July 2.

Just because it isn't updated doesn't mean it's not true.

BTW, I ran across some old geography book that said their are 48 states in the USA. I guess I should believe that too.

If you can find a US gov't website that says 48 states, then you have an apple. Until then, you have an orange.

Our President thinks there is 60. So who is to say what is right?

I'm not an expert on US states or UA K fares, but I thought I could at least chime in to ask everybody to please stay on topic. Thank you!
