Why is United More Expensive than any other airline to HKG?

Question

A first class UAL ticket to Hong Kong from LAX cost 25,000 Dollars, but Delta, Continental and everyone else only runs from 6-8 thousnad dollars. Also if you use expedia or travelocity, etc. and do united first class its about 8,000 dollars, but through the United website, it is 25k, why is this?

Answer 1

www.cheaptickets.com and use United Air Lines. Their landing fees at both airports are higher than Delta or Continental, thus higher prices.

Answer 2

Because that's what they want to charge, Jeez/

Answer 3

idk, but U.S. Airways rules!  fly on it!

Answer 4

Airline ticket pricing is one of the most enigmatic things I have ever encountered.  Many people ask me about ticket prices, and I have to remind them that I fly the plane.  Perhaps the tickets on Delta and Continental are business class.  Also, expedia and travelocity are cheap ticket websites.  They try to always have a better price than the airline's official website.  That is the whole point to them.  Hope that helps you.
