Public Service Announcement: Best Air Fares

[SlowwHand]

I didn't take time to check all departure cities, nor all arrival cities.
This is a representative guide only.
All fares are single tickets, one-way.
I don't include the names of the airlines.
Grass, gas, or ass. No one gets advertized for free.

Price is USA dollars.

New York to Beijing = $497.00
New York to Paris = $360.00
New York to Berlin = $334.00

Los Angeles to Beijing = $367.00
Los Angeles to Paris = $1458.00
Los Angeles to Berlin = $2579.00
I found nothing from Miami to Havana. Raft?



London to Beijing = $523.00
London to Paris = $23.00
London to Berlin = $ 7.00
London to Havana = $683.00
(What's keeping you Brits nailed down? )


So ok. There you go. Be sure and send a postcard.

I guess three impending bankruptcy's really put the fear of god into the air travel market.

Seriously, you can get some seriously cheap flights over here. My mother is flying from Manchester to Dublin return at easter and I think that is about £40...but you still have to add on tax and stuff. I intend to visit Amsterdam at some point and I may fly it because it is possibly cheaper than the ferry. Silly really as I would have to drive half the linear distance between where I live and Schiphol to get to Manchester Airport

Re: Public Service Announcement: Best Air Fares

Are these all available onthe same day? If so,

Los Angeles to Paris = $1458.00
New York to Paris = $360.00
Implies NY - LA = $1100 one way

Los Angeles to Berlin = $2579.00
New York to Berlin = $334.00
Implies NY - LA = $2250 one way

You can surely do better than that on US domestic fares, so somebody's price discrimination is not sustainable.

[SlowwHand]

Do you think the planes might fly in opposite directions, Adam?

[Provost Harrison]

Nah, LA to Europe would be north-eastbound, like just about any domestic flight from LA...

[SlowwHand]

But not to Beijing. I know that pretty definitely.

[Pekka]

Yeah, I know what airline is responsible for the flights departing from London.. They are starting here in Finland too. I really have to wonder are they smuggling cocaine, or how do they plan staying in business?

But if it's cheap and still the same quality, it's all good.

[Provost Harrison]

They are flying Lancaster bombers and deliver you to Berlin 'airlift' style

[Pekka]

But those prices from LA to Europe are disgustingly high!
I just checked prices today, since I'm going to westcoast to visit my folks, it would be $400 from Helsinki to Seattle one way. With good new plane. But that's kind of special deal I get from.. anyway, but normal prices were little over $500 one way..from here to Seattle.

[SlowwHand]

And more importantly, protestors can afford the fare.





woo-hoo!

[Pekka]

And I just have to add that prices are little high here right now. It's normally around $800 roundtrip. And it's quality stuff. But sure, economy, I can't afford travelling in business side, for those prices they'd have to give free sex and alcohol during the flight.
