Yes, it definitely was available in January. I booked a journey for January on this fare. It was pretty much available throughout the available booking window (330 days).

I need to be in Los Angeles for my dates in September for an industry conference. Was looking at direct flight in Business for £2,890 and W+ for £1,300. So with all those extra TP's I'm happy!

I'm really happy about it. Yes to the 777 outbound MIA-LAX and in First class and on A321 (sharklets) on the return leg.
Booking took almost an hour on the GGL line. After putting all the details from Matrix into the computer the agent told me the cost was around £3,500. I said that the flight should be nearer £1,050 and she checked back to find that the leg between ZRH-MAD was showing no I class availability. She tried many things to try and force this but with no luck. However, she kept looking and eventually found an I class availability on an earlier flight on the same day. She entered this and price dropped to £1,050. So I immediately booked it. ^

First class on the A321 ? How did you manage that? Well done on the itinerary - I missed this one as not rushing with a book by date of 31/05

Flights to Islamabad
Hey,
Trying to find a good deal to Islamabad for late September or late August for a couple of weeks.
Trying to stick to OW. I've checked the usual suspects so far and only found prices in the £2k. Economy wise Qatar do £466 with lots of availability direct from LHR.
Any ideas/tips would greatly appreciated

Pretty sure the only OW carrier serving ISB is QR so that will limit your choice massively.

Also I think the AA three class A321s are only found on the JFK-LAX, JFK-SFO, and JFK-BOS routes. I haven't seen them on any other routes.

I think IFE Wizard means he got F on the B777 sector from MIA to LAX, which if they are still operating the B77W on the route is a nice bonus.
