Price Mistake? How To Save Up To $210 On US-Europe Flights!

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

Priceline Linky

This may be slightly complicated to figure out and get to work for your preferred cities and dates..but it’s still a very sweet deal!

If you book a United flight to Europe with at least 1 domestic segment on USAirways, then Priceline will take off up to $210 of the price on the payment page!

This is not for the “name your own price” bidding, this is just for the regular priceline booking site.

Here are a couple examples of how to get the deal with valid dates:

Example A:

1. Go to Priceline and select “multi-destination.”

2. For flight 1 use PHL (Philadelphia) to ORD (Chicago O’ Hare) on 02/21. (This should force a USAirways domestic flight)
For flight 2 use ORD to AMS (Amsterdam) on 02/21.
For flight 3 use AMS to PHL on 02/26.

Choose the flight with USAirways for flight 1 and then United for flights 2 and 3. The price should be $481.

On the next page the following pops up:
“Good news! We were able to find an even lower price for this itinerary. The new price is shown below.”

The new price is just $271. That’s the final round-trip price including all international taxes, and $210 cheaper than you can find on any other site!

Example B:

1. Go to Priceline and select “multi-destination.”

2. For flight 1 use CLT (Charlotte) to ORD (Chicago O’ Hare) on 02/28. (This should force a USAirways domestic flight)
For flight 2 use ORD to FRA (Frankfurt) on 02/28.
For flight 3 use FRA to CLT on 03/04.

Choose the flight with USAirways for flight 1 and then United for flights 2 and 3. The price should be $416.

On the next page the following pops up:
“Good news! We were able to find an even lower price for this itinerary. The new price is shown below.”

The new price is just $246. That’s the final round-trip price including all international taxes, and $170 cheaper than you can find on any other site!

Hint: It may help to start in a USAirways hub and connect via a United hub.

Has AMEX Gone Crazy?

Monday, February 4th, 2008

In December 2006 AMEX ran an incredible promotion (which I wrote about extensively on this site) in which they offered a $250 rebate for each of 4 different business cards opened.

The cards offered were the Platinum business credit card (no annual fee), the Delta business credit card (no fee for first year, then $85), the Gold business charge card (no fee for first year, then $125), and the prestigious and benefit-laden Platinum business charge card (Was $300/year at the time, now at $395/year).

Unfortunately AMEX lost everyone’s original applications and requested that people reapply.

Originally I had applied for all 4 cards, but after the lost application fiasco I only reapplied for the platinum charge card, which is never offered for the first year for free.

I expected to have to pay $50 to carry the card for a year ($300 annual fee, less $250 rebate)

The $250 rebate posted immediately upon opening the card, what never did post was the charge card’s $300 annual fee for the first year! Sweet!

Fast forward to August 2007, I received a letter from AMEX apologizing for losing my original application, and offering a $130 credit if I would call them back to apply for a card. (I didn’t)

In September 2007 there was a present waiting for me in my Platinum charge card account to the tune of $130-more free money!

After I was hit with the $395 annual fee last month I was planning on closing the account. Luckily I was busy traveling and pushed that off! While I was enjoying what I thought would be the final fruits of my Platinum charge card at one of Continental’s excellent President Clubs, Shmuel Raigorodsky asked me if I had received another $250 from my AMEX card.

Another $250?!?

Lo and behold, there it was in my account, another $250 present from AMEX-This is the card that never stops giving!

Since then I have received dozens of giddy emails from people who have also received the $250 bonuses. The luckiest ones were the people that got the no annual fee card, but I’m quite content with the $250 subsidy off my platinum charge card.

I’m just glad that I don’t have any money invested in AXP…

www.flyporter.com

Porter Airlines is now selling tickets starting at CAD $95+ each way between NYC and Toronto.

Some more details:

-Service will start 03/31.

-Porter flies into Newark (so we will hopefully see a strong reaction from Continental).

-Porter serves Toronto City Centre Airport (YTZ), not Pearson (YYZ).

Toronto City Centre Airport is located on Bathurst, in downtown Toronto.

“While on board, passengers enjoy complimentary premium snacks, wine and beer, a spacious cabin environment with leather upholstery, and extra legroom. All Porter passengers have access to a modern, comfortable and stylish lounge at Toronto City Centre Airport, including wireless Internet access, refreshments, and a business centre.”

-All prices on their website are in CAD.

-Porter says it will serve Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. by year’s end.

One caveat that they would rather you not know: Their only aircraft is the Bombardier Q400 twin-engine turboprop.
