I keep getting an error before entering passenger information on XP. Any idea why? I can search flights and select correct fare, then it errors out before entering passenger information.

Mine was CEB to LAX, but CRK worked too. Might be a date thing. Try using the Hipmunk option on powertools.

Since you have status on AA, DL is offering status match, so this should give you DL PLT until 2019. CRK-PVG-SFO RT is 14.5k BIS, 150% MQM's (21k+) easily satisfies the match requirements, and you end up with 25k+ award miles and 5000 MQD's.

Nov 26 to Dec 15. I am guessing that it is Point of Sale issue.
ITA defaults to the CRK, while POS in USA and other places dont show any I class.

I tried some other POS and expertflyer. no I class..

but ITA does price up.

I looked for some OTA from Philipines but still cant price it.

Thanks OP!

Booked CRK to LAX January to March. With LAX as home base, making two trips out of it, hopefully can find a nice positioning route.

Yes, thanks OP for finding this indeed. I booked two of these to JFK at $1371 apiece, since I come to Asia on a regular basis anyway. Now just have to figure out my positioning flights out of China...

Is same plane turn possible at CRK or CEB? Scheduled turn time is only one hour. This is only feasible if not clearing immigration/customs.

I found an old thread but there was no response.

I can't speak for CEB, but CRK is definitely not built for airside transfers. I can't imagine any way to transit without going through immigration, customs, paying the terminal fee*, going through emigration, and going through security. You'd have to convince somebody guarding the door to the departure area to let you by.

* if it's still applicable. The last I heard, they'd integrated the terminal fee into the ticket price for MNL departures but not CRK.

Thanks, just booked two at $1175 each.

Orbitz, CRK-LAX-CRK, January, long 14 & 16-hour connections
Expedia, CEB-LAX-CRK, July, medium 4 & 5-hour connections

Each site had one but not the other, making it quite a challenge to find the availability.

I saw that some trips could be booked directly on the MU site. The MU/MU flights are expensive there, but the site is offering MU/DL combos for $1208.
