I thought fuel dumping is a thing from the past?

I have been able to save USD 500 with a VPN (booked Aeroflot ticket advertised on Russian google with a Russian IP). I am able to read a little bit Cyrillic so I was able to go through the booking. Citibank then blocked my CC and called me. Did everything again and got the ticket for USD 1000 instead of USD 1500.

Good experience with switching languages on sites. I was able to buy tickets 80% discounted by switching from English to the native language.

Fuel dumping is probably a much smaller deal then it was a few years back!

"blogs" ruined a lot of tricks and fun for some; but my understanding from observing the FT thread is that there are still people involved, just on a much smaller scale.

Enjoy while it last. Some Idiot always has to make a blog post to collect some ad revenue or some attention. People don't understand that you can only use a loophole, if few people know about it.

Bullet train tickets in Germany are expensive. You were able to buy them online in the Czech Republic for a fraction of the price. Like Prague->Brussels 20 Euro. You don't have to use the whole ticket, you boarded in Frankfurt and went to Brussels for 20 Euro.

Gone....
