United appears to be discounting domestic economy awards by 20%. This looks like an unannounced sale, with short haul flights under 700 miles in distance pricing at 8000 MileagePlus miles each way (instead of 10,000) and other domestic flights pricing at 10,000 miles (instead of 12,500).
In addition, United just posted a redemption discount to Asia which is 25% off North Asia awards and 22% off South Asia awards.

Three years ago Starwood began launching partnerships with airlines to share customers and increase bookings — by giving benefits or points to incentivize likely high value travelers.
First they launched with Delta, then they added Emirates. And now they’re adding a third airline in a new region: China Eastern.

On Friday I wrote about United fares between US hub cities and Southeast Asia for less than $500 roundtrip. These fares are still around, and it gets even better.
I noted that you can fly Newark, Chicago, San Francisco, San Jose, Los Angeles, and Houston. So mostly from United hubs, which is unusual, fares like this are almost always used to attack the hubs of other airlines. (For a little more fares are available from other cities as well.)
It turns out you can book an open jaw itinerary for even less — fly into one city and back from another from $355.

United has an airfare sale that’s truly unique and worth a look for several cities in the US to several cities in Asia. The fares are strikingly great, you’ll want to pounce now if interested in flying to Asia between September and December.
These fares are available from Newark, Chicago, San Francisco, San Jose, Los Angeles, and Houston. You can fly roundtrip for under $500 to Ho Chi Minh City, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Taipei, Manila, or Jakarta.

Usually we see the best airfare deals when one airline attacks another airline’s hub cities with cheap deals. For instance United might offer great fares from American cities like Dallas and Charlotte and Delta cities like Atlanta and Detroit.
You don’t usually see an airline offering the cheapest fares from its own hub cities. That’s because they are usually thought to have pricing power there — the best schedules with the fewest connections that people will pay more for.
Right now though United appears to be offering amazing cheap fares to Southeast Asia from its own hub cities.

Kuala Lumpur is one of my favorite cities in the world. It’s probably my favorite food city, from satay to prawn mee to amazing roti.
It’s an interesting city with good food — probably the most decadent breakfast buffets in the world — and some of the best deals on luxury accommodations.

If you’re looking for a cheap fare from New York, Los Angeles, or San Francisco to someplace in Southeast Asia — Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Jakarta — now is the time with trips available from $417 all-in.
Fares are available September through December. You’ll find United fares for travel on United and ANA.
While there are cheap fares (~ $600) to and from the same cities, the cheapest fares are open jaw trips like New York – Bangkok, return from Kuala Lumpur. Similarly fly into Jakarta and back from Singapore.
