MightyTravels posted about this fare back in January , last year there were a few deals that allowed you to route GRU-JNB-IST/FRA/LHR-Germany at some attractive rates....
On this route, the LATAM 767 takes at least an hour longer flight time than the SAA flight, if I'm not mistaken due to ETOPS issues...

it's a MPM fare and you can hop around South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe , I had 600 odd BA TPs, You can also route through JNB twice for some really creative ones like the below, 2 stopovers free each direction too but remember JNB to GRU needs a Yellow Fever Cert!!
Excellent for seeing parts of Africa that are normally cost prohibitive,
Ignore the dates below this is just to give you some ideas

I looked at the comair map route map on google then built the itin from there,
Some flights only run certain days of the week so you have to play around a bit with it

What advanced controls are you using on ITA? I will check Comair, thx. Will Mauritius work? Cannot get this $888 LA fare to show up with any routing.

I can construct similar itinerary, but priceline always prices it around 500 more.

Another thing you might be getting is the double back through JNB, Priceline doesnt deal with that well
Don't give up yet :-)
I managed to get to the payment page as mine.
