LAX-IST in J on AF, connecting in CDG.

777 for the LAX/CDG leg, going to ditch the CDG/IST leg and stay in Paris.

61k FB +$250 (was double if I just booked LAX/CDG)

Nice! I've never flown EY A380 F but the 787 F is a great hard product IMO.

The 787 bed is much more comfortable IMO.  Still much prefer EK over EY though.

The 77W is only flying JFK-MIA for 2 weeks in the Holiday season.

While the 77W is ending this route early January, the 772 will fly this route for a few Motzei Shabbos’ after.

January 12, 19, 26, February 2, 9.

Leaves MIA 9:55pm. Enough time after winter Shabbos.

Nice redemption. How long did Marriott to QF take?
