To the east of South Africa? Mauritius again? Could you be a little more specific.

Yes. No. No. I'm not putting it in print. PM me if you wish.

Hmmmm, but does this port have any scheduled OW flights?

There must be some error. I still have room for an additional 80 messages. As for flights, there is a line to Doha on QR, and lots of connections from there.

The one I'm talking about does. Try the oneworld route map.

I have a good idea about where you are talking about, but why won't you say what it is?

I have it, thank you.

The airport code is similar to my initials, but that doesn't help you as you haven't met me, thus don't know my name :p

Sorry if this has been asked already. We used to have a spreadsheet that could compare any starting point but it seems to have gone... I am looking for the best starting point in Asia for a DONE3. Asia, USA, Europe. Don't want to go out of my way to save $300, but anything convenient from DPS, DRW or SIN.

Thanks!

Convenient, not so much, but Japan has good prices for the time being.

See CAI, AMM, KRT, etc. If you know, then why would I need to say?

I made a veiled reference a couple months ago and no one picked up on it.

Your current link works.

I still don't understand what you mean about the link in your earlier post. I did click that link and it does not take me to that post.

ExpertFlyer gives present (and historic, for that matter) fares. As the page will say, just enter the same city for starting and ending. Simply enter a city in each country you're willing to consider (and the same city as 'selling city'). Note that the actual price will be a couple thousand dollars (U.S.) higher due mostly to airline arbitrary fees (YR, YQ) designed to make "base" ticket prices seem lower than they actually are.

I'm interested (but not very) in the country with fares so low it must be kept secret. If you snag such a deal and the rate desk of the airline doing the booking agrees with the fare, be aware that if you ever make a chargeable change to the ticket the AA rate desk (at least, but it seems to be stated in the rules) will recompute the ticket price in its entirety (using historic pricing as necessary) and may then catch the error.
