i fly red-eyes btwn lax and WAS (either IAD and occaissonally BWI) - in fact just did one at the end of june. now looking for these same red eyes for end of sept and there is NOTHING that is non-stop. Not only is there nothing non-stop, the earliest connectors get one into WAS no earlier than 10am... that is too late.
Actually had an agent tell me to use United. I currently have found an Alaska Airlines redeye directly through the Alaska sight, but not as codeshare w/American. Frustrated bc unless i fly first class, i don't think i can even get the regular 2K miles (only a fraction) for EQMs.
is there a way to book the Alaska flight as a code share if i can't find it on the american sight to get full miles or is first class my best bet?
And what is American thinking that they shouldn't have a red-eye LAX-IAD/BWI ? those flights are ALWAYS full. this pisses me off.
