TLV-ORD finally opened up for 7/13. TLV-IST-FRA-ORD, stopovers are an hour each. 3 seats + infant. Thanks Dan!

Wow that's an annoying flight

Not ideal but free outweighs annoying.

Congrats!

Just put on hold LX I TLV-ZRH-SFO x2 + 2 infants.

There was another leg on UA but they couldn't hold it-off topic but when do holds expire on the day the email says-midnight of the destination time, or origin time?

Usually says in the email. I think it's the booking time zone

For what it's worth, there's still seems to be lots of availability on the TLV-IST-FRA-ORD United flight on the 13th (1am)

You can technically get out and have 2 hours to actually see stuff, but there ain't much there unless your just going to eat.
What did the first leg cost? Second leg is the a380?

First leg was 45K per pax.

Second is A380. Shower time!

You can't.

Perhaps counterintuitively, there were reports of this being successful in the other direction.

Do you have specific information in the negative?

yyz-sfo-ogg
ogg-ord-yyz

1 day in sfo (10 AM to 7 PM)
8 days in OGG

Should I be able to tack on a yyz-lga leg to the end of this? (booked with ua)

I had 3 tix in J for YYZ-SFO and had tried to do plan B for SFO-OGG but after a few tries, I couldn't get them to do it correctly and gave up. Checked randomly today and 2 seat were open in J. Quick call to the call back line and confirmed in J for 2 seats SFO-OGG. Will have to decide who sits in which class for which flight...

All legs are recliners right? How did you decide it was worth the extra miles?

My first Alitalia flight.
It was down to Air France with a 6+ hour stopver
or a normal Alitalia flight.

With the reputation Alitalia has I'm sort of nervous to take any luggage. At all.

I'm not not checking bags on Alitalia because I'm scared, I just don't plan on checking bags because it's a hassle regardless which airline I'm flying.

Got it. I wish I could get away with that. Honestly I could potentially since they allow more carry on in Business. Guess we'll see.
Where are you off to?
