The thought of visiting Beijing in November in December may not be the ideal family trip, but it is the ideal business trip! We found this unannounced deal on Northwest Airlines (NWA.com) for Los Angeles (LAX) to Beijing (PEK) for $603 (after taxes).

The itinerary (see below) was for 11/17 – 11/24, but search in and around those dates for possible additional flights at that rate. Again, no mention of this deal on NWA, so you have to search blindly.

We’re also seeing LAX to Tokyo (NRT) for $616. And, LAX to Beijing’s other airport (BJS) for $654 for travel during the months of November and December with NWA.

Finally, some love for Manila. You would think that Northwest Airlines would be spotlighting this deal on their site, but it’s flying under the jet stream. We couldn’t find any mention of it.

The same price applies from LAX, in addition to SFO. Due to the unannounced nature of this “deal”, we don’t know the details, only that we’re seeing low rates for late May and June. So, expect fares to climb in July.

Rarely do we see good fares to The Philippines, which is unfortunate because of the large amount of expatriates living in the States who frequently make the trip. It’s usually Tokyo, Hong Kong, Beijing, Singapore and Bangkok dominating the deals to Asia. So, this is rare opportunity. Up next, maybe some love for Seoul?
