FYI, those prices are one way, and without taxes and/or fuel surcharges. Still, good prices which you may not be able to beat. The UAL.com is however a pain to get the special prices to come up. I tried to book the promo from ORD to BKK, kept wanting me to stop in LHR and $6000 for the ticket, not the more direct route through NRT. For testing, I tried a flight from ORD to FRA which was also on sale, no problems getting the sale prices for that route. In any case, Korea also had a sale on, same price and less restrictive.

it is hard to find open dates for those sales. but are very good prices when you do find one. just booked the wife back to bkk to pay taxes and other items for 912.00 us mci to bkk. also get double miles for trip and she will get gold staus for the trip on a promo. if the price gets lower i may have to call in sick for a few weeks. cheers and thanks for the heads up on that.
