I only have a few hours transit time in LAX befor departing to RAR, and that is what "worries" me. I have done Sweden - Thailand in charter once (much worde than economy) for 10 hours and that was terrible. Considering this will be close to 24 hours both ways, I am quite worried that if I "go cheap" and only pay for Economy it will be very long hours.

For the Island stop I am looking for great waters, snorkeling and basically relax in a very nice atmosphere.
