[PREM FARE GONE] Cx del-pek i $597

Google Flights shows availability but none of the links will work. If you want to buy at this price, use Momondo or some other search engine/ aggregator to find the right OTAs.

Search carefully to put all sectors on CX metal. AFAIK even MH hasn't sold this route this cheap in recent times.

interesting fare. seems to work on the via.com link in gf for 626, not too bad. works thru holiday seasons and Chinese new year, till Apr 30.

EDIT: cleartrip shows as well, for 597
EDIT 2: books into I, earns a ploughing 225% mileage with AS with no status, all others 125% though. careful as PEK-HKG segments CX can have lie flat or recline seats, lie flat are PEK-HKG: CX391, CX331, KA has none. free stopover in HKG possible. 7130 butt in seat miles.

£1.28 / TP on BA for anyone chasing status. Seems to be a 2 night min stopover.

Stopover is free once at HKG. This is cheaper than their cheapest economy, so better book early just in case. Great fare!

How good are CX at honoring such fares historically? Any data points much appreciated.

Excellent find OP! Last MH deal on this route IIRC was INR30k (~US$500) ages ago!

The fare appears to have gone ...
I was too slow - trying to work out a combo with the KUL/DEL fare but I missed out
Did anyone book it?

Nooo, just discovered this thread minutes before boarding a LH flight without WiFi. Now the fare is more than double.

Well, a pulled great fare is, as binman commented in the CAI-HNL thread, an occupational hazard to us chasing miles, TP, EQD or whatever.

A great find, thank you for sharing, OP

This was an error fare almost certainly ... whereas the CAI/HNL fare was not.
When the fare is too good to be true you need to jump on it immediately and hope the airline honours it
