SYD/LAX $US631 RET (tax incl) on UA

UA has a good sale United Airlines - Twares

which works in both directions. It's only October/November. At current forex rates that's under $A700 return or JFK for $A900. Wow!

Sadly, I got this when I went to the link:
This tware has expired. Please stay tuned for future twares!
They come and go fast, so jump on them when you can!

Apparently, I didn't jump fast enough! Might be worth watching that page anyway...

These prices are still available ex-Australia. Use the normal UA site United Airlines - Airline Tickets, Airline Reservations, Flight Airfare and add the promotion code TWRAU. SYD/JFK for 20/10 and 17/11 is $US 804 ai.

But it only accepts a US credit card or US paypal account at checkout.

Does anybody know how to get around this and pay for it successfully?

I have made reservations on UA using my Oz Amex.

Have you tried the same route on www.unitedairlines.com.au ?

Did you make your reservations on the us website or aus website?

The price difference between these two websites is about $200, and the aus website is more expensive.

Both, but that was earlier this year - also for domestic USA HUP fares. I booked two one-ways about a week apart, checking fares on both portals and ascertaining the cheaper options.

Maybe the OZ portal will get cheaper as exchange rates 'catch up'.

looks like I missed it.

Damn that was cheap!
