EDIT: sorry you were talking J, I don't know if those routings are available in J as well. Definitely for Y though.
Yep J. I can see this North America ones but I see two problems (for me) - one is that the layover in USA is 1.5 hours. This isn't something I have done for years but I understand you're supposed to collect your bags and re check them? Not sure there's enough time.The other difficulty is that my partner needs an actual visa for that 1.5 hour transit which is both costly and rather a pain in the backside.
So what happens if I book this and it can't happen due to restrictions? Refund?
