Well, folks, it looks like the AA Business Class fare from DC to Beijing a few weeks ago wasn’t the end of all of the fun.
American is pricing out itineraries from Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW) to Hong Kong (HKG) in confirmed business class. Cheaper than the Washington DC fares, and on a true-lie flat product, this is a not to be missed ticket. Usually, the DFW-HKG route is notoriously difficult for systemwide upgrades, so if you’re an Executive Platinum, use a SWU to sit in first.
You can find the fare on multiple dates, and it looks like the fare jumps to the traditional $4,000+ type after September 1, so this looks to be good through the summer.
- The fare appears to only be good on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday departures.
- There is a 1 night minimum stay requirement.
- You can use a systemwide upgrade to confirm into First Class, if available.
I’ve priced out a sample itinerary here, departing Wednesday July 15, returning a week later.
Because this is a mistake fare, we don’t know how long this will last, and AA could pull it at any time, though with the previous China fares, they did allow customers who TICKETED a reservation to hold onto it. Those with held reservations were canceled, so its best to fully book now and think later.
I’ve already booked 3 of these trips, and am looking forward to trying out the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong while I’m there.
Book now, think later…..
…Unless of course you realized that today is April 1 and this was an April Fool’s joke. 🙂
doh
Pulling a joke like this isn’t nice.
Good one! 🙂
Click bait. Quite lame and unappreciated. Despite it being 01APR.
Funny but it would have been better if you would have had the route from some airports that don’t fly that non-stop route like say STL-HKG or CLT-DFW

Really lame. You clearly have no idea how an April Fool’s joke is supposed to work. You don’t just post something that could be true then say HAHAHAAHA JUST JOKING at the end.
You Farthead LOL
I fell for it
