I really liked the 77W hard product (soft not so much), and the flight times on LX 38/39 are excellent.
Agreed. LX business awards from the west coast used to be the white whale. Now I see it more often. What’s infuriating is the LX married segment logic combined with the new UA award rules/system. LAX-ZRH alone wasn’t available, but LAX-ZRH-VIE had availability. Wanted LAX-ZRH-FCO , but that wouldn’t come up. ZRH-FCO showed X availability when searching LAX-ZRH-FCO, but couldn’t get an agent to change my LAX-ZRH-VIE to LAX-ZRH(I)-FCO(X). If your head is spinning, imagine my pain, and the poor UA agent. Needless to say I still have an LAX-ZRH-VIE and not sure what to do. Hopeful LH F will open and it’ll be moot.
