Don't want that. Just want to get there in minimal stops. The route through DFW is also much more expensive.
Is Qantas trying to boost their routes out of California?
So it goes without saying that typically shorter and more direct flights cost more, just like red eyes and early morning flights cost less. Its all about supply and demand and the perceived demand is that flights with less stop overs are more desirable.
