I'm not sure if that was a glitch or just pure luck but seems like a big price discrepancy since they're back in the $500 range now. I'm flying JFK-LAX and then LGB-JFK. All EMS seats.
Their website is to blame for almost all the issues I've seen. 400-500 for LBDW sounds about right. I've already booked my RT JFK->SFO in regular seats and am going to splurge for the Mint upgrade on the way out. EMS on the way back with points.
