Sas: Ord-dub $640 pe

Pretty good PE fare on SAS. Some long layovers, but I haven't searched around.

I can only get it to price on certain OTA's which I've never used. Others reprice to $1100.

$150 higher than the sale from earlier this year SAS Premium Econ: $720-750 -- ORD to Europe -- JAN - MAR. Still good though. Thanks for posting. In for a few.

You can book through SAS. Looks like Saturday / Sunday departures and returns have the shortest layovers.

Interesting tidbid, if you skip the European segment on the outbound, SAS does not seem to cancel your remaining itinerary (inbound), but don't quote me on this or try it at home without adult supervision...

This is terrible advice.

​​​​​​Shorter connections can be booked on SK. For longer connections and more convoluted routes GF does not seem to be able to generate a link from SK. I'd bet if you manually feed to the data to SK, it would reprice to much higher

Darn, I’d been hoping this fare would come back but for August. A foolish dream.

we used this fare-type to BCN 2 weeks ago. A very nice ride; included lounge access at ORD and CPH/ARN, comfort kit onboard, upgrade on the intra-Europe segment (including food/liquor/wine), upgraded food (they had Premium Economy food trays for both meals which were different than what was served in coach). Only downside was toilets were behind the PE cabin in the middle of coach.

Always look for alternatives, in particular booking directly with carrier, saves a lot of trouble and hassle sometimes.

For the flights that I'd like (2 week trip USA to the Alps) it seems that prices don't drop to below $1,000 until after September 19.

Also, many of the layovers are long (eg. 8-9 hours) and the European flights (CPH or ARN to the destinations I want near the Alps) have average or below average legroom (according to google). Although the price is very attractive, I'm not sure the downsides (to me) make it worth while.

If anybody is looking for more mileage, SFO-DUB starts at $604 roundtrip.
https://www.google.com/travel/flight...ewjGTuNQkEDPo8
https://www.google.com/travel/flight...p4L9dFsq6tZGG8

If you want an immediate turnaround you can get that for $30-$40 more. It looks like Friday and Saturday departures are the cheapest for that. This one will earn you 21,274 status and redeemable miles credited to Aegean (Cost per Mile - 3.0185 cents / .028 EUR).



EDIT

You can also get to Rome on a few dates starting at $801 roundtrip (cost per mile is slightly worse, but not bad)

https://www.google.com/travel/flight...LPfbqiYg4Umem8
https://www.google.com/travel/flight...4MZf4z8SCVuGa9

This one would earn 22015 status/redeemable miles credited to Aegean (Cost per Mile - 3.8258 cents).
