I did LAX-PTY once over 12 segments for £528 and 980 TPs!
LOL. Thanks. I've contributed a couple of examples to the TP thread as I've also done similar to you, although IRROPs blew a hole in my recent 1100 TP run.

But I am sick of the crappy old ex-US Airways planes at PHX and CLT and have been trying to figure out how to route via LAX to get the good lie flats - without paying for separate positioning flights.
