CPT-IST-NQZ-IST-EBB Turkish Airlines TK $USD 2844
It seems like a good business class deal to me but ignore/delete if it is not. As the title says, it is CPT-IST-NQZ-IST-EBB. $USD 2844 = $CAD 3835. You should start from CPT but you can fly to other airports close to NQZ (like ALA) and EBB (like DAR ) but EBB seems like the cheapest to end up. Many dates are possible. CPT-IST is lie-flat seats (A350 I believe), IST-NQZ pair are extra reclining seats. IST-EBB can be extra reclining or almost lie-flat depending on the day you fly. IST-EBB is via Kigali.

When does something qualify to a good deal to you? Sincere question.
This one is about $94/€88 a hour. Regular price is like €100 to me if you put some effort in it. Most deals I see here are like €50 a hour. But maybe I should take a look at FFP/Miles instead of bucks?

Sorry to say, but the three posts you have made here hardly qualify as deals (and that is putting it mildly). Even if CPT-NQZ is currently 20-35% cheaper than usual on certain dates, the route is so niche that it is very unlikely anyone will use it for a regular trip and the miles earnings is definitely not enough to warrant a mileage run. For such a niche route, the deal would either need to be incredibly cheap or with incredibly high miles earning to warrant a post in this forum for the whole world to see.

It's not a deal, it creates unnecessary noise and it would be nice to prevent further such posts to keep the thread on topic.

Apx 12,300 miles in J, some cool cities a great lounge-multiple times and for under $3k USD? Why all the hate?
Its obviously not for everybody, but let's not let this forum degrade to the bullying we see in other forums please.

To sum up my opinion: while we as a community should be nice to each other and especially to new posters, OP needs to be made aware that this post doesn't fall within the (admittedly somewhat subjective) range of quality needed for this forum to function.

I agree wholeheartedly with the last sentence but simply put, this forum would be overwhelmed with less-than-useful posts if posting something like this was acceptable. There are hundreds of "deals" every single day as useful as this one (based on criteria like route popularity, route attractiveness, miles earnings, novelty, and most importantly price) that all the actual good stuff would be buried among stuff like this.

I wouldn't want this forum to end up like the AC forum where a handful of people determine what is useful and rule the place.

Not sure I follow the "less than useful" and "acceptable". I think its easy for anyone to look at the thread title and and see the cities, the airline, the class of service, the price and decide to click or not. If few people view and no one replies, I think OPs will get the picture.
