Quite unbelievable

I know MLE and other destinations (BKK and SYD spring to mind) are tough to find in J but LAS is tough to find in ANY booking class

Can't wait for the 747 -> this route really does need not just F but also the extra capacity^
not just LAS - J availability to LAX/SFO is also very hard to get. I don't think the move to the 744 will help this. Also, with the holidays in April, people would have booked awards a long way out.
