My comment was not specifically tied to LAX. But even such, if the agreement goes through QF and AA can be considered one instead of two. As for V-Aus Delta and UAL, i have no use for them and I'm pretty sure most OW and people traveling around Australia instead of just going to the gateway city would agree with that in regards to most of them.

Of the routes proposed in this thread i'd most like to see MIA-JNB/CPT. But will take what ever I can get here.
