-Philadelphia to/from Dallas nonstop for $93.80 round-trip on USAirways (2,605 miles)
This can be a useful flight if you’re gunning for what’s possibly a lifetime of Star Alliance Gold status via Aegean. You only need to earn 19,000 miles in a year to attain that.
While cheap United fares only earn 0.5 miles when credited to Aegean, cheap USAirways fares earn full credit. USAirways leaves the Star Alliance on 03/30 though, so there’s not much time left to take a mileage run to earn Aegean Gold via USAirways flights. I’ve included some mileage run options in the sample dates below in case you want to take a few quick trips to rack up miles for a lifetime of free bags and club access on dozens of airlines.

anything to/from FL?
It’s nearly impossible to get on your site when you post something. The Philly to Dallas flight is coach ?
anything to cancun?
Please note that you need to get a visa if you wanna get out of the airport in Moscow.
nyc/moscow comes with a free body bag.
The Aegean status trick is still around? Had no idea.
You say “airfare” and the world goes to Dans Deals!
Is it better to remain having round trip tickets originating in the US (guessing at anticipated TLV-US travel, or paying/requesting of waiving the change of fee charges) or start fresh with round trips originating in Israel? Just worried that we will miss out on most of the great deals that you find and post if we originate in E-Y.
Any one day turn arounds in late march
To follow up on the 1st post, are there any deals to Florida in February from Chicago?
Anything for lizensk for both aders?
Anything from tlv?

Hey Dan great post any links for flight booking 101 in your archives or in the forum? Really appreciated
is it possible to buy 2 or more tickets on same cheap flight for same person and get double credit to same aegean account, or do you have tofly all those miles on seperate flights
any deals to cleveland from nyc in jan
Dan: Have you seen this comment on the USAIR page regarding Aegean: “We plan to continue relationships with the following airlines, which means you’ll be able to earn and redeem miles on these select partners even after we’ve exited Star Alliance: Aegean, Air China, Air New Zealand, Avianca, Ethiopian Airlines, Eva, Shenzhen Airlines, Singapore Airlines, South African Airways, TAM, TAP and Turkish Airways.” We then should be able to use USAIR to get our Aegean miles even after March 31. ????
Dan,
Can you elaborate on the NYC-Moscow in business on S7?
I called BA and they can’t do it. S7 website shows a flight Geneva-Munich-Moscow but one first flight is operated by Lufthansa. Do you know how to book this with Avios? Is there a way to do this with only one stop between and NYC and Moscow?
@Jay:
Hard to know for sure what the deal is.
@Olympics nu?:
Who said anything about S7 from NYC? They don’t fly to NYC.
Got it….Many thanks for all that you do, I did find it a bit confusing but now I see that it’s Moscow-Sochi for 15k/30k
