I've heard that it's similarly beautiful. But since JJ removed F, I'd have to fly a crappy US carrier :P

Korean F/J from LAX shouldn't be too bad. Or AA from JFK/DFW.

Would you say it's better than KE F from LAX? I have wanted to do that when they had the 777 but never had a chance.

Maybe, but there are places worth suffering to get to. Also KE has F from LAX-GRU. albeit on an A330.

True.

For KE I'd have to route via LAX... (well, like I did last time :P)

I'm actually a big fan of AA 77W F.

That said, it doesn't hold a candle to the top Asian/ME carriers.

Of course not, but allowing that to negate destinations is silly.

You'll be in Argentina for succos, or are you going from the US just for chol hamoed. Still, chol hamoed is the very beginning of spring, not much warmer.

With an average temp of 42 Fahrenheit in October, I think we can handle it. We're not from LA ya know  ;)
