Yes, $3982 all in for the LAX-HKG non-stop. It's $12k to $17 for the other options. Interesting that P is only $500 more than I on this.

Saw this a week or so ago when AA sent a bunch of us targeted 25% discounts to HKG. After the code it was $3k all in for roundtrip first class. Unfortunately the blackout dates kill the deal for me 
I was curious though if anyone has experienced the F class on AA's LAX-HKG route. I know it probably pales in comparison to CX or JL F
Just noticed the deal seems to be dead altogether though

I was trying to book this without success. Then I read the fare rules.
Outbound travel must be before Nov. 30th, no Friday, Saturday or Sunday departure and 7 day minimum.

I have flown in F recently on 777W flights LAX-LHR and JFK-LHR. The differences between flying in J and F are: more space, bigger screen TV, and I guess more up market toiletries etc.
The menu seems identical to J, the difference being in F all the courses are served separately whereas in J all the courses except desert are served on a tray. It is possible that the wine choices are superior in F but I was not able to do a 1:1 comparison.
In theory you have better service as one flight attendant appears dedicated to serving the 8 person F cabin whereas 2 are dedicated to serving the entire J cabin. In reality, in my experience, it depends on the flight attendant. I have had outstanding friendly, thoughtful service on one LAX-LHR flight and good but not outstanding service in F on another. On one JFK-LHR flight the service was similar to F service.
I have been using SWUs to upgrade to F largely because I passed the 2 million mile mark and had more SWUs than I really could use. Otherwise I am not sure that I would go ever for this sale price in F, versus the J cabin on the 777W.

That said, plenty of reports on the 77W hard product which has been flying for maybe 2 years. Good seat, lots of space, great for working (can swivel seat toward window/center where there's an extra desk), but privacy isn't great. Some issues with galley light in certain seats because the US carriers still won't use solid curtains for security reasons.
The soft product is expected to be the "enhanced" soft product that was recently introduced on LAX-SYD (and I think extended to DFW-HKG) to be more comparable with JV partner Qantas. Catering is enhanced with more options and dine-on-demand (a bit of a novelty for a US carrier!
) There should be examples in the LAX-SYD thread and/or the International Meals thread on the AA forum. Reviews have been pretty positive, although there's the typical crew variability. The bubbly I believe is LPGS, which personally I like better than the Krug (though I suppose below JL's Salon).F passengers also get AA's "Five-Star" service at both ends, which is essentially an escort through the entire ground process. Have heard very very good things about it in LAX specifically. I think it's offered by QF in SYD, not sure who does it in HKG, since it's not offered for sale in either of those markets per the webpage. Assuming you do get it in HKG, that's certainly an improvement over what CX offers its F passengers!
