Please can someone help me with LX availability?

Looking for 2 in F

NYC to MAN (or LHR) on 5th Jan 2010

From what I can see, available routes are:
LX17 > LX394 via. ZRH
LX15 > LX394 via. ZRH
LX23 > LX2807 > LX394 via. GVA & ZRH

Currently booked (for my parents) on UA F via. IAD and would love to try and get LX if possible as this is their first (and probably only) trip in F.

Checked on expert flyer C is wide open, but unfortunately there is no F available at the moment

Thanks allanhuk.. I'll keep trying! (I'm of course assuming that UA F is probably marginally superior to LX C?)

Swiss are refitting both C & F from April 2009 onwards, with New York the first route to be completed. Details are already discussed maybe here and for sure in the M&M forum, plus a Link. Having never flown either I can't help with the which is better question. What I do feel compelled to point out though is that if the final destination is MAN be aware that LHR-MAN on bmi is Y only, and although I might be wrong here I think if you don't have status there's no lounge access on an award ticket. Where as the C service from ZRH-MAN is very good by intra-european standards and you'd be welcome to use the Swiss lounge.

UK to NRT return, your thoughts welcomed.

Looking for last minute flights UK to NRT Return. I would appreciate if anyone could help me out by searching LX especially inbound.

My situation- I am in South Yorkshire (Northern England) happy to use LHR but prefer MAN. Hoping to depart for NRT between Sat 4th and Mon 6th April 09. Returning between 15th and 18th April 2009.

ANA is showing availablity outbound for the following;

6 Apr NH LHR - NRT Business and LH CPH-NRT Business as well as
SK and OS Economy.

Return flights are proving difficult to find.

My options - I would rather use ZN2 to ZN8 miles+cash therfore LH is not my first preference. More than happy to around the house if need be especially to accommodate a return.

Please answer my SOS!

Thanks in advance.

Just to clarify - I am looking for award flights.

Flight redemption check for LX

Hi folks,

I wanted to check on ANA tool availability of LX (Region 2 [CPH] - (via ZRH) - Japan) for two people in C to burn some of my DC miles. Unfortunately the ANA tools does not show LX as an option.

Anybody an idea how I can check if there are two seats on LX for miles around 10th August (out, +/- 2 days) and 01st September 2009 (return, +/- 2 days)?

Alternatively, which C class is better: OS, LH or SK?

Thanks in advance

Swiss available on the exact dates you want in Business, and indeed one day each side both ways. F available on the exact dates you mentioned as well, all for 2 pax. Didn't check the CPH feed but this is never a problem, pick a flight from the timetable.

LHR - JNB

Hi Guys

I want to travel from LHR - JNB leaving about 1 June 2009 for 10 days or so. I can be reasonably flexible with departure and return dates.

I can only seem to find availability with TK (via IST) with ANA and was wondering if anyone could see other availability, perhaps with LX via ZRH.

I'm after 2 x seats in business.

Thanks as always!
