Catfight between NW and HP!

At least that's my theory. ANC-PHX is down to $178.80 on NW. Is NW trying to send a not so subtle message to HP by flying so cheaply into their hub?

The routing is ANC-MSP-PHX and will result in 7,560 base miles per r/t. That works out to $0.023 cents per status mile!

Does it ever get any cheaper? :-)

With Phoenix in my future,

how lucky you guys are up North! NW never has a catfight here in HNL, at least not for as long as I can remember. That is a super deal...


Aloha

AA & UA had catfight from DEN-HNL & DFW-HNL eacho selling RT for $170 in '97. I flew on AA DEN-HNL for $160 which was only Hawaii ticket I ever paid (others were award tickets)

PHX-ANC isn't the only killer fare, how about $138 RT between PHX and BOS or NYC, or $108 to CMH, there's bound to be more out there. I love it!

snake-I got the NW deal to ANC but where did you find the $138 to NYC/BOS? Were they on HP or NW? I'll take advantage of all of them, maybe to ANC a couple of times.Thaks.

Folks who are ANC bound and would like the services of an "unofficial" tourguide should drop me a line!

Also questions about the local area will be willingly fielded. . .

Best regards,

The PHX-ANC deal was there the last time I looked, but the PHX-NYC/BOS deal evaporated, as these deals often do.
