Via Dan’s Deals, and this only prices out on the New Zealand Expedia site.
Total is $930 New Zealand dollars which comes out to just $699 US Dollars!
This seems to work for tons of dates in January and February. If you can find it in other months please post a comment!
Sample dates for JFK-JNB
01/12/11-01/19/11.
02/07/11-02/14/11.
02/15/11-02/22/11.
Update: According to the Flyertalk thread on the deal:
Works for IAD as well. When AndrewT84 mentioned CPT works as well, I checked and there is the same (or noted +$) base fare to LAD, LVI, DKR, LLW, PLZ, ELS, VFA, HRE, BLZ (+$50), LUN (+$50), DAR (+$120), NBO (+$120), EBB (+$120).
Any way to upgrade this fare? Definitely too far for coach.
Economy fares on SA earn 70% eqm in mileage plus.
yeah, great fare… if there was a way to upgrade it…
good find still. 😉
If you credit to OnePass, you will get 100% eqm. Since 2012 status is based on adding both OnePass & Mileage Plus eqm’s, this is a good solution.
With the $300 mistake credit and now this South African mistake, Expedia sure is on a roll! I sure wouldn’t advise investing in their company right now.
