Was able to book a quick turn, leaving late Friday night / early Saturday morning (12:45am) and lands back at LAX at 8:30pm on Sunday night. China visa required obviously, but useful for those who need a lot of EQM to requalify and don't want to sit through rounds of SEA-BOS or SAN-BWI.
You can even knock off $104 by signing up for a Fortune Wings account and booking through the Hainan website. I believe they are also offering Silver or Gold Elite status just for booking a biz ticket from the US (depending on fare class)!?
