Correct it's 1 pax. It's hard to find but I get lucky with this route as I flew it a year ago also.

I'm debating how to fly as I would like J all the way and it's hard to find anything usually, although I could go through Asia but that's probably as big of a schlep as this.

So, what's the price, 500K because there was no SAAver space between LGA and DFW? :-)

So what's the issue, you wanted J but got F instead?

LOL its nuts if I wanted a non-stop flight it would Jack up the price like crazy. It's just a bunch of stops that's all. I'm happy with F.

Presumably traveling on an F ticket, you should be able to same-day standby on a non-stop if open.

Since 2002, the Yankees are 88-33 against the Twins, which is a 118-win pace in a 162-game season. H/T @kentremendous
