DM with Reserve. I'm 1 for 2 each way ATL-LAX-ATL this year. I missed 1 each way on Jan 25th (all seats filled both ways) and got 1 each way yesterday (Feb 1). Outbound I was #1 for 3 with an RUC and return #3 for 6 without an instrument All were on a V fare, Wednesdays. Flights 1802 and 101.

Last year I was 2 for 3 ATL- LAX on V fares (both UG's with RUC's). and 1 for 2 LAX-ATL (no certs)

As has been stated, it;'s a tough route - even with RUC's

Also, with the new gate swaps, they all seem to be T6 in LAX so no convenient Club.

ONT -SLC is 3 a day. I don't believe that SLC has direct CMH service so DTW or MSP would seem to be your best choices.
