Guest Astrrro Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 The best airfare deal ever from the USA to Bangkok just started today. 30% off all flights on Etihad from the USA to lots of Asian and Australian cities. The discount does not apply to taxes and surcharges so the total discount should work out to about 28% for most Economy bookings and very close to the full 30% for First and Business Class. There are no blackout dates and you can fly far into the future, probably 11 months but not exactly sure. This sale ends on December 2nd and you must input the discount code to receive the discount.

firecat69 Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 I looked at those. Business Saver was gone and Business Value was available BKK-ATL and return and the fares were terrible. Much more then EVA, ANA, Asiana, . Business Saver would have to be 1/2 of Business Value to be a good deal and I doubt it was that low. As well as the total time was way too long. No Thanks but thanks for the tip because one in the future might just be a Winner! Quote
fedssocr Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 The prices are good until the end of schedule. If you have flexible dates finding lower fares is possible. But I would imagine that seats are selling fast so once the US-AUH legs go then you get into higher fare classes.I found $3150 IAD-BKK. And the IAD-AUH legs are on their 787 with their latest business studio seats. But I hear that the US preclearance facility at AUH is a nightmare for the legs to the US. And as firecat notes, US to AUH is a long flight so the overall time is a lot longer than going up and over the arctic. Quote
firecat69 Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 You must have been luck y. I am looking 8-9 months out and the lowest fare is the Value Fare at 90,000 baht each way which makes the RT about $5500. The saver fare would have to be 40% lower then the value fare for it to be a good deal. Maybe it was for 5 minutes . But i would never pay that amount of money for bad connections etc. Quote
