If I had had time to ponder, plan, and compare, I would’ve taken F to ORD given that it was only $1200. But what drove people take YVR where you get the least amount of miles?
Choose yvr for lower cost, for two people worked out to be 400 USD less. When i was looking, costs to all other places were hugher. Jfk had been fixed. Also as a holiday from EU and HAN unlikely to be direct, didn't want to travel too long in p2. ORD as an attraction doesnt do much.
