Yes, I'm sure. I've flown these flights fairly routinely on US Airways and American over the years, domestically. There might be a situation where you're talking about a flight with an international and domestic US leg - I haven't flown one of those. But most of the flights in the US that have multiple legs and one flight number are the same plane flying around all day on the same flight number. You just get credit for the distance from your origin and your destination, not each segment.

LATAM announcing the start of GRU-JNB for sometime in 2016 (pending government approval).
Will be cool to be able to start a RTW ex-JNB heading to South America first. Wonder what sorts of changes that would bring to the sheet. |

If they remove the ex-JNB DONE4 minimum requirement, this means southern hemiphere DONE3s. Completely awesome.

Be careful for what you wish for. The transits thru Europe/ME may become more restrictive than they are now. I remember that one could end anywhere in S. America until such time as more flights became available. ex-CCS anyone???

JJ offers F but only to JFK, AFAIK. Maybe that got pulled. I have a strong suspicion however that JJ J is actually not lie flat on most of their aircraft.

That shouldn't be an issue. No US Airways flights exist (from 17 October 2015 IIRC).
Atlanta was added on 1st September, wasn't it? It caused me to completely rework the DONE3 I'm on now, as I was booking first week of September and had planned LAX-ATL-PDX-ATL-SEA-ATL. On the upside, I'm finally pulling the lever on a PHX-ANC flight in a couple of days as a result. |
