Yup, LH is 75K SQ + about the same YQ, and has fake J for the second leg, this has real F/J all the way.

I'd prob. choose BA F over LH due to the second leg. while AS is worth more, the amounts are still comparable.

You're equating 80k AS to 75k SQ?!

Not at all, compared the 'amount'. from the airline's perspective they're charging an acceptable amount.

URGENT! I'm in DTW scheduled to leave in a few minutes for CLE. The flight is oversold, and they are offering me $1200 to take a flight landing at 6:30 in CLE. Licht is approximately 2hours later. Is this a stupid idea?

I wouldn't do it, if something happens to that flight you're stuck there for shavuos....

I'm glad I'm not your wife
I guess you guys have to decide if $2400 is worth all that trouble and possibly staying in DTW for shavuos....
