Only available from LAX, which departs at 1155pm.


Didn't see that, just googled the flight number. An awfully long flight with no KSML.

Only together with the LAX-SYD flight. Not by itself.

But he was referring to the LAX-SYD portion.

Thanks, do you know the answer.  I'm looking at the ORD-YVR route, which seems to be a rare award space.

It's been that way for a while. Great way to burn SkyPesos with the current sale.
