United Europe Sale Through Winter

United's Europe sale ends tonight.  West coast (and further) travelers are seeing good price per mile.  For those wanting to visit Europe and see the indoor sights without the crowds, these are decent prices.


From Honolulu, Hawaii (HNL) to Lisbon, Portugal (LIS).  Over 17,000 miles.  5.9 cents per mile.  About $1000.  The return from Lisbon necessitates an extra night, so choose where you want to spend that night.

March 1 HNL-IAH-EWR-LIS
March 9 LIS-EWR-IAH-HNL

From Hilo, Hawaii (ITO) to Lisbon, Portugal (LIS).  6.1 cents per mile.


From San Francisco, California (SFO) to Dublin, Ireland (DUB).  Nearly 12,000 miles.  5.9 cents per mile.  $704.

March 3 SFO-EWR-DUB
March 10 DUB-IAD-IAH-SFO

That itinerary has a long wait in Newark, so add another hop before Newark for a few more miles and similar price.  5.7 cents per mile.  $702.  12,422 miles.
