Wow, just wow... crazy deal for JL F.
and it has a kids fare associated with it, I pulled up US$2100 for RT in F on JL for 2-11 yr old. no min stay and seemingly 1 year validity, so lots of ability to nest with some award tix. I cannot see beyond basic fare rules, such as whether stopovers are allowed. Also would be interesting to see if you can do OJ on the return (say to a destination in Japan instead of returning to ICN)...
ah, found the fare rules on EF. Wow, free changes once first segment flown. Also appears to allow ICN-LAX-JFK with JL metal across the pacific and AA 32T in F across the US.
