I also opted for better connection times (less stress) and airports I am familiar with or which seem to have fewer issues (now and in the past).

Chose EWR -(UA) SEA -(NH) NRT -(NH) CGK outbound and CGK -(NH) NRT -(UA) LAX -(UA) EWR inbound. I added Canada to EWR using flight pass credits I need to use before year end and I have a short hop to Bali DPS from CGK for $200 which works well into my schedule.
Are you able to route it to Bali from CGK ? Is that a separate trip ? Link please itinerary. What is the reason for the additional $200, the stopover charges ? $100 per stopover? so two stopovers ?

Why link to the AA/JL/QF spin off when this is the NH/UA/*A fare? Surely the fares are different.

Is there another bigger and more detailed discussion thread on this NH/UA.*A fare NYC-CGK via TYO ?

Saw the double stopovers on some Facebook post, here is a sample with Stopover in Tokyo and Seoul with a day in Jakarta...

Probably can be improved, it has UA across the Pacific on the return and it seems Asiana runs a recliner 330 between CGK-ICN...

Can someone help me understand this ? I dont speak Aeroplane language.
1. What does RTG means ? and TAR-TPRAG means?

2. Why does this published fare is $2,300 while we can only see $2,475+ (as indicated from the title of this thread). Is $2,300 the travel agent's discounted fares ? The Consolidator's fares?

3. I am going to take the first route... what does "/" and "-" means? Why sometimes its Airport code and sometimes City code. But there can be other routes as well rite? Why this 9 routes... and

I assume it says DEPART New York City with United Airlines/ANA from Washington - what does that means? Could someone translate into normal human language what does route 1 means? Did it say Mexico ? I cant imagine anyone flying from NYC to Mexico... then to Hawaii then to tokyo then to osaka then find his way to Jakarta... And you can only do one stopover each direction. So everything else will have to be a layover.

4. As shown above .... How does Seoul fit into this route? It doesnt say anything about SEL. Is that list of possible routes incomplete?

Yes, that is the thread has the detailed discussion of this fare. The UA fare was a match/discovered later, hence the thread title.
I know it's long, but actually reading through it would probably save you time vs re-discovering what has already been discussed there.

The NH fare is less interesting; I'm not aware of a good reason to use it (unless there are availability issues) since the UA fare can be ticketed on NH stock. See the other thread for details.

NYC-CGK Business: United/ANA $2673

Goes from Nov-June and some dates $100 cheaper (in 2023). But nice flight to grab status on before the holidays. Linked price is $2620. Depending on date selected can mix it up with United/ANA or all ANA.

If you select JFK as the departure airport, you could fly with ANA new business class "The Room".
could add a stopover in TYO/HKG/SIN for only $100-150

.
Sorry for delay in answering. Extra to Bali was a separate ticket in econo $200 on Garuda. All worked out OK. Worst parts of trip were on UA but NH was excellent in every aspect. I had no stopovers that I used for my NYC-CGK ticket. Just showing that I could get creative with leftover credits to hook me up to NYC and travel in comfort on NH/UA even if UA was vastly inferior (my opinion) to NH.

But HND-CGK is

This thread should probably be merged with the existing *A thread on this fare that's been around for a year though.

Are you thinking of the AA/JAL thread?​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​I haven't seen any other *A thread for this fare.

I was thinking of this one, which became the reverse once people realize the opposite routing was also possible.

SQ: One Way - CGK- JFK Business $1464

​​​​​​​Maybe different enough to remain with the current title though, agreed. Forgot it originated as the inverse.

This seems a very good deal.

Anyone knows until what date this deal will last?
