This is outrageously expensive for ONE passenger even the US being a captive market of high spenders. As a comparison I bought recently a partner special for TWO people in booking class A (first) from Italy to South America and back for the same amount (in EUR tough).
This said, all these people moaning and complaining about LH group airlines, just try competitors, perhaps a nice US legacy carrier or a ME airline where work conditions and human/women/gay/other minority rights are what we know.
A good idea would also be to buy tickets on 724 or 220 ticket stock, never had a problem.
