Off topic, but may I ask how many points you use for that J round trip? Every time I checked Flying Blue for J from LAX to europe, it came back with 120,000+ one way. That's really high comparing to United's 70,000 one way. Maybe I am just not getting the lowest rate award tickets at the period I searched.
