1. Why is September / October blacked out of almost all sale fares, where November is included? Is something happening in the world other than the Rugby World cup. I seem to remember booking the 2017 trip in May, so will these months open up later in the year?
For November it's the lack of business travel over Thanksgiving which realizes the low fares but over the years the date window has been getting ever shorter. TP runs to the middle of the Pacific are probably not the best option after the AA change on 2 class flights. Booking that far out with AA means you are likely to get rerouted xxx-LON-LAX unless you make a stopover somewhere like MAD to force a NYC-LAX segement
