Hello - wondering if you could let me know what you think of this itinerary.

Dep 28/3, Ret 30/3 (from LAS)
DUB-LHR-JFK-LAS-JFK-LON-DUB
in J/I/A/A/I/J
For 40+140+210+210+140+40 = 780TP

Coming up on matrix at £1107 (£1.42tp)
Have been able to price it on AA.com and coming in at $1793.90 so it does exist!

Do you think this is a good option? Arrives into LAS at 19.20 on the Saturday and departing at 08.02 on the Monday. so gives one full day, and could probably get away with one night's accommodation in Vegas as will be able to head to the airport early. JFK to LAS is on a 738. Is this a good choice or should I perhaps be looking to fly from JFK into LAX or PHX (or similar) and adding in another connection? Will try to keep the cost down, but want the best journey possible, so what are the recommend aircraft for AA? From reading on here I need something that will book into F to get the full TP.

I also looked at the babybus but not possible on Saturday departures. On the return I is pricing up the same, however, when searching on AA.com it is booking in D rather than I and therefore looking at about $4000. Is there a reason for this?

Thanks is advance for your help!
