Lots of availability this summer all the way into 2018.

Routing options through CDG/AMS possible.

thanks. unfortunately no PDX or SEA. Might be worth a flight to SFO and a drive up, it's a nice drive.

LAX for the same prices as SFO. ST fare doesn't seem to extend through EOS, but OW fare does.

Anybody found any more west coast cities than just LAX and SFO?

Note that open jaws are allowed within the US, arriving to LAX and departing SFO for example.

If you want to maximize earning on SkyTeam, consider routing through FCO on AZ, MPM exceptions allows this to work at least for LAX/SFO and the fare allows I class on AZ, which earns significantly more miles.

However, note that AZ is bankruptish, so if you take this option, probably plan to fly it ASAP, or have a credit card that will reimburse you for the ticket. Edit: But, if you can add at least one segment on DL (and it can be a short one like LAX-SFO, and convince DL.com to price this, then DL will issue this on 006 ticket stock and thus be on the hook if AZ goes away).

006 ticket will likely give revenue based miles.

I book these sales through AF / KL (even direct Delta flights) and get much better miles as AF/KL issued tickets, esp for west coast cities.

Not seeing this price any longer using the OP's link above. Are any dates for Skyteam still live at this price?

Thanks!

Depends which program you're earning into.
