It’s worth noting that United has the 787 Dreamliner flying once daily between Newark and Houston between 11/04/12 and 01/03/12. It seems to fly on the flight that leaves Newark at 1:45 or 1:50pm. After 01/03 it will only fly internationally from Newark. Click here to read about 787 features and watch 787 videos and here to see the 787 infograph.
Check the Orbitz box to search “3 days before and after” to help find other valid dates. Or read about using ITA Software and use the month-long calendar search to find cheap flights.

nice thanx!!
Can you just get off in Denver, Houston or SF?
@AB:
They’ll cancel your return flight.
Dan, I know I can get off in Houston, but is there any solution for
Return flight?
is this fare considered a great deal? is it worth waiting for something better if i wanna fly in december?
@Heshy:
No.
@meir:
This is an EXCELLENT deal.
it seems to require a saturday night stayover
@loveudan!:
No it doesn’t.
It requires a 3 night stay or a Sat. night stay.
dan, is this going to be pulled soon, or do I have to act fast?
Can this be used for next October 5, 2013?
@dovy2:
It’ll be around at least until the morning.
@BarryD:
“There are lots of other dates between November-January as well.”
Works on united.com to if you want more points on your united credit card
Is it 1 hour from LA by flight or driving?
All Dreamliner flights appear to be over $300
hi i dont have an united card yet, is there any benefits if i book with their card, or if i get one after i book with amex i can get free bag… with the card
or if i apply on the phone is there a way to book right away
@Izzy:
Not true, be flexible with your dates, and you will find it.
@Dave:
You get the same points for booking United flights on Orbitz as the charge is actually done by United.
@motti:
Driving.
@Izzy:
Wrong.
@dovid:
You should still be able to get a free bag if you show the checkin agent your card.
@dovid:
No.
@motti SF to LA is 6 hr drive
I dont understand how to book this flight , how do i book a stopover, and what do u mean u need a three night / sat night stay?

@daniel:
Have to assume he was asking about Ontario.
@Eli:
It’s a flight from EWR to ONT.
USe ITA software month-long search if you can find valid dates.
@joe:
No it’s not.

@Dan:

How would I go about purchasing a ticket using this deal???
How would I purchase a ticket ?
No instructions on how to us this deal….?

Anybody?
Are there any Hyatts in the area that are worth using my 2 free nights on?
thank you just booked for Jan 8- Jan 13 !!!
Booked! 1/17-1/23 $159.
THANKS DAN
WOOHOO!!!!
Anyone looking to get off in Houston and doesnt want to lose their return, i have a solution for you. Let someone else (namely me) continue your flight for you to CA and then begin your return leg for you back to Houston, at which time you can get on and continue back to EWR. Depending on your schedule, i’d gladly volunteer. Gets me a free flight to visit CA!!
Dont worry about the name on the ticket not being mine- i will get through security with my own (refundable!) boarding pass for some other generic flight! Hit me up with offers!
Thanx dan i just booked with three friends from dec 12 – dec 17 for $159 each, i luv u dan u rock!
I need to go mid Jan….oh, why couldnt they leave the 787 on that route until then:(
any clue what type of fare it is? i wanna get miles on aegean….
Dan– there are some dates that will price at $161 for a 1 or 2 night stay (the one i found was from 1/16-1/19)
@NYER:
Grand Champions Plam Springs.
Park Hyatt Aviara
Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach
Andaz West Hollywood.
@Bert:
😀
@miles:
G=50% is credited to Aegean.
Better to fly USAir to credit to Aegean.
@jj:
That’s 3 nights.
@Dan: Glad i made you smile, Dan! Big fan!
DAN!!!! Just booked 2 flights and got it all for 315!!!! thing is i have a very small credit line on my chase freedom and wasnt able to book both on it. Think theyll let me change the card on the second flight within 24hrs after some of my credit card payments go through?
Just booked with a friend 12/11-12/16 $162 each
Thnx!
how do I know what plane im on and what’s special about the 787? i didn’t get that whole part
Is there a way to stay in San Fran for a few days?
Dan– there are some dates that will price at $161 for a 1 or 2 night stay (the one i found was from 1/16-1/19)…..sorry i meant in that range of dates..there were tix for this deal for only a 1 or 2 nt stay
levi again—-if u are asking that question, then forget it.
I called united and asked if i could use my Chase Freedom for the flight and still get free baggage for having a Explorer card? and they said that you only get free luggage if you pay for the ticket with the Explorer, it also says that you must buy with the Explorer for the free baggage in the Confirmation email that they sent, is there any way around it (to use both)???
what airport in California can this be used with. I;m looking to go end of November to new york? will this deal work for me?
when does this sale end? i would like to go from Ontario to Newark end of February and return beginning march?
@Dini:
read the post!!
I was going crazy trying this and not getting results, until I switched browsers and it went right away with no problems! For some reason, their website doesn’t work in Firefox. In Chrome it works perfectly.
Correction: I was referring to Alitalia of previous posts, not United.
tried booking for beginning of Jan and I cant get that price
can you offer some assistance
@shani:
Use ITA to find dates!
EG 01/09 to the 14th, 15th, or 16th, etc.
Is there a code to search by Airliner (Airbus A380 etc..)
Can someone help me out here? I went to Orbitz, entered the dates (1/23-1/29) and tickets were 356 apiece??? Anybody?
@Yossi:
No.
@MuttyL:
Use ITA
This looks like it’s been pulled, still working by anyone?
Still alive though most dates are sold out.
Use ITA to find valid dates.
@Dan: BTW about the Google ITA, in my opinion, if you look for cheap prices google.com/flights gives you better prices than ITA.
Hey Dan, First thank you for the amazing work you do on this web sight.
I was wondering, do you know if there are any flights left available within this price range, between the dates of December 23 and January 19 ?
There are, just use ITA to find em.
Thank you Dan
@motti:
ONT is one hour drive from LA – I fly from there all the time. (I live in LA)
I tried EWR to ONT on orbitz for leaving 11/18 returning 11/21 (and even 11/22) with no luck
Hi – I see the cheap fares but with 2 stops. So one direction is 10+ hours!! Any ideas??
@lou bob: switched with more people to 1/15-1/22
Thanks dan!
Is this deal still available???
@lou bob: I wanted those seats!
