Are you sure? I actually always assumed that YVR would be the next to lose F (at least on some of its frequencies). It looks like CX made LAX the next choice to cut some F, but I would have to imagine YVR was in consideration.

I thought that because as I recall prices for F to/from YVR considerably less than LAX, SFO or JFK, no? I think you can buy HKG-YVR round-trip under $10k usd, whereas prices approach $20k for the other destinations? In the land of cash F fares, YVR is a relative "steal" to North America!
