- mentioned in another thread - but deserves a bit more attention I believe

- verified JFK/LAX/IAH/IAD but likely works to all TK destinations in the US

- much more miles since the flight path is much longer than China Eastern

Wait 1-2 minutes until the last search results come through or go directly to Vayama.

Great deal! Thank you, OP.

If I understood fare rule, I could fly like this for <$1.8k

28Apr ORD-IST
22Sep IST-MNL

But I can't price this out with momondo. It just shows $2.3k
only 2days left before this deal goes away.

The $2300 price appears to be correct; at least, that's what I get from ITA. The base fare is $1000; there's $596 in surcharges built into the fare (mainly a fuel surcharge coded as Q), for a total of $1596. Then, it has a $656 fuel surcharge coded as YQ, and about $95 in taxes and fees. I'm guessing that you missed one or the other of the fuel surcharges when you were trying to price this out.

Some of the other fares don't have the embedded Q surcharge -- if you use the same dates for LAX or IAH instead of ORD, you get prices around $1850, for example.

Unlike TK's ongoing China - XXX J deals, which first segment must begin by March 31st and last must begin within 4 months, this ex-MNL deal is by May 31st and within 6 months respectively.

The real constraint is it must be booked by December 4th, extension is possible but don't hold your breath over it, I'd book it if my schedules are open, 1 heck of a deal with 5cpm if you're TK C+/E/E+ members. I wish this would've been available out of other Asian gateways like BKK, HKG, CAN, and TPE.

Thank you, jsloan. I switched to JFK and got this.

But I still have a probrem, cant't price out on any airline websites nor OTAs. Momondo shows $3.2k.
I use the latest ITA matrix power tool and tried from American to Farebrekes. They all shows over $3k price or error message.

Anyway to book this please ?
Thank you in advance!
