Next I need to find flight onward to CHC after a stop over. Doesn't look like can can do that online so will call in.
AS does have a direct flight from PHX-LAX so will also need to book position flight unless SFO-NAN space opens up.
Best of luck to everyone trying to lock in this sweet spot before AS devalues it.
I tried booking any combination of SFO/LAX to AKL and/or AKL to SFO/LAX for about 6 weeks, 3-4 times a day for dates in October 2024, always seeing availability and every time it would say unable to reach partner when I'd check out. Tried multiple attempts at reaching out to Alaska and they never could help me out. Glad to hear someone was able to book something!
