Summer Europe Fare – $862: Los Angeles / Chicago / San Francisco / Washington D.C. – Frankfurt, Germany. Roundtrip, including all Taxes

A good fare for Summer travel to Germany. From Los Angeles and Chicago, availability smack in the middle of the Summer. For San Francisco, just the tail end of it.

This does not meet our 6 cents per mile criterion. Just a good fare for Summer travel to Germany.

Update 5/1/2015 @ 4:55PM Eastern – also available from Washington D.C.
