When CX 828 arrived in Toronto at the dinner hour, many pax did connect onto AA flights for the southern eastern US. I too cant fathom why the CX brain trust decided to end F service on 828/829. Now there is a need to have a early pm flight exHGK for LAX as I travel the route connecting to South Florida at leave every six week and I have no desire to wait the required 9 hours in LA after missing AA flight by less then 30 mins. All LAX-HKG flights seem to be booked solid in the front as my office has me taking AA from Dallas to NRT this week and then connecting on a JAL DC10 to MNL.
Its seems I can never buy a 'break'.
