Without a ticket - you have nothing.

I only waited 5 minutes for TL to issue the tickets.

Without a ticket - you have nothing.
Without going thru the USA - you also have nothing. But I am not going thru the US. I only have the last segment going to the US and plan to throw it away.

yeah, that routing was not worth $600 extra for me. I'd rather spend some time in Montreal before coming home and just do JFK on the way there

I know, I know.

To each his own! We would pay up to $1000 for not having to go to the US but that's just us.

Looks like I got shutout for whatever reason. I'm thinking the security hold triggered by Chase (that I cleared up within 10 minutes with a phone call) might have been what screwed me.

FML.

I'm in for the 566 to YUL. I already have the 375 via BKK, DXB, MXP to JFK but that's 'only' in J class! Good luck all. (fare went to 16000 for those dates after I bought it)

Most of the ST routing I found was via AMS.

Wow, update: Travelocity is saying my reservation was cancelled due to minimum connection time violation. I left 3 hours, they say JFK min from LX-DL is 3:30. Can anyone confirm this? My KVS is acting up...

Note: I was not ticketed.

LAX routings?

Would be interested in getting this to route thru LAX or SFO. I'm not getting anything less than $1K for those airports. Did anyone else have better luck?

you can get flight from jfk-yyz less than the $600 and even better you dont suffer any AC flights.

Understood. One can hope. Chase is showing a CC authorization by ANA, so looks like it would be NH stock for me, if issued.

I don't want to go thru the US because I want to lock my bags and not subject to search by TSA without my presence. Not because of the price or comfort.

You'd need 3-4 hours-ish at JFK for sure but that does seem a bit .

Booked this on TL for $736 AI:

RGN - KUL MH J
KUL - BOM MH J
BOM - ZRH LX F
ZRH - YUL LX F

Ticketed on LX stock, not through US, so we'll see how this one plays out
