Yes, this is cheaper, also involves UA, and I couldn't get the HKG routing to work under this one with AA, so I felt it was different enough to be worthy of a new thread.

I don't think the 77W F is worth the extra cost (in money and time), just my opinion. In J, I'd do it any and every day of the week as the gap there is massive, but 77W F is not a major step ahead of 772 F. Thanks for pulling that up though, ITA didn't want to cooperate with me to show it!

Is $1700is ow worth it?
Thanks for posting. On a side note, I was able to get a one way from lax to Jfk to ord to Pek on business for $1736 on aa, with a week stop in ny Because of this. I never buy business ticket since I normally use miles. Just wondering if this is worth it to earn miles. I'll lose my platinum status by then so the only bonus miles I'll earn is class of service, I think. Thks.

@ Skunker : Thanks for showing this. I've been trying to see how to incorporate HKG into the routing. I certainly think the 77W is worth it over the old 772 and I appreciate the wifi onboard and the upgraded AV systems.
