Not bad but the cx pe deals last week with 3.5 eqd was much better.

Ughhh, missed the boat on those. Didn't see much posted here. I'm hoping for a return of the PE to KTM Ex US

Also available as OW

Thanks for this, obv not as great as the CX Black Friday deal but very good for what is basically their normal deal, plus AA is a better airline.

Also saw that this fare is available OW as well, which is great for ppl who need to do mileage runs on different carriers/alliances.

It's definitely worthwhile for those with SWUs to burn!

You can typically book these through AA Vacations as a bulk fare and get distance based EDQs and EQMs. And its cheaper!

It was posted all week here and was so talked about that it was on the top constantly. It was a little bit annoying to that extent. The cx deal was very worthy of being on here so much however, many people bought multiple tickets

SFO-SIN/BKk on CX metal in February is pricing out at 1500ish... Obviously not as cheap as Black Friday but a good deal from an EQD perspective....

Yep, grabbed a couple SFO - HKG, $772 for early 2019. Fingers crossed on the upgrades. As an Emerald I was 3 for 4 from CX PE to J last year on this route.

AA is extremely consistent with all these things.

Yep, can’t figure what I was thinking when I made that comment... maybe thought there was a lot more offered than the ~$775 to HKG. I think the lack of J deals completely fried my brain.

A bit OT, but what's a good J fare for this route -- a fare that might be expected once or twice a year based on past experiences?
