Flight booking/finding advise needed
 

Hi FTers,

Need some help/advise on how and where to find cheapest ticket possible.

Looking for the following

06/22 NYC-LIS
06/27 LIS-VNO
07/12 VNO-NYC

*A preferred as would like to get the miles to the CO account. All all legs must be as one ticket.
Tried ITA soft but it's quoting Y fare.
Forgot to mention, looking for 1 ticket in economy class.

Appreciate your help.

I'm not surprised since there is no natural routing which includes 2 destinations so far apart, neither of which is a hub. Thus the software is pricing up a series of oneway segments.

Some ideas which might (I haven't checked) help with lowering costs

NYC-LIS return and separate ticket for LIS-VNO return

NYC-VNO return with stopover at enroute hub (FRA?) and separate ticket from that hub to LIS return.

As above but switch VNO & LIS.

Normal round trip to Europe hub (must be on *A) and *A europe pass as separate ticket.

Thank you for the suggestion. I believe the best option to be to get cheapest NYC-Europe-NYC + Europe AirPass.
Was wondering if an airline (issuing the euroPass) would be able to connect all the legs into one ticket. I'd like to have all on one ticket in case schedule is changed and I'm protected and also luggage requirements (everything would be covered under US-Europe luggage restrictions.
