$573 R/T Business Class Fare Bangkok – JFK!

by Adam

While searching for the Qatar Airways $1,500 fare from Asia to the US, I came across a $573 business class rountrip fare from Bangkok to JFK on Xiamen Air. The routing is via Fuzhou (FOC) where Xiamen operates a 14 hour and 40 minute flight to JFK aboard one of their new 787s. Lucky reviewed their 787 business class product on a SEA-SZX flight back in October and was quite impressed with their soft product.

Back to the fare, I wanted to confirm that it was actually bookable before posting. It is…if you are flexible and act quickly. When using Google Flights, you should see a few $573 BKK-JFK fare dates in March 2016 for roundtrip business class . About 10 minutes ago (while I was confirming the booking) every day in March had availability, but now there are just a handful of available dates remaining.  If you click the link to book with Xiamen, the fare is repriced to around $2,000 USD. However, the CheapOair and Orbitz links are still working for select dates. I was able to proceed all the way to the payment page for a few of the March dates (others returned a repricing error). Act now to take advantage of these while they last.

UPDATE: Please refer to the comments section below, “Z” class in this case is sadly economy 🙁

Note that Xiamen Air is a Delta Skyteam “group 3” partner.

@Matt , be aware this fare is booked into “Z” class aka their lowest economy booking code. This is yet another display error shown by ITA.

Is this like the one yesterday that looks like in J but really is some kind of Y fare that is upgradeable to J? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/mileage-run-deals/1811387-mf-foc-jfk-r-t-y-409-a.html

@ Rapid Travel Chai – Yes, unfortunately it appears to be Economy “Z” and not upgradeable.
