LAX-BOG-MAD & vv: all 787's - approx $2,030 RT
Can play with stopovers in BOG for a bit more.

If you decide to take the flight, I would recommend sitting in the front section of business. The mini-cabin (last two rows of business) are right in front of economy and the bassinets. There were several babies that cried right behind my row. I don't blame the babies nor the parents, but it made the flight a little uncomfortable.
Service is also a bit on the gruff side at times.

Agreed, it's a reliably cheap way to get to Europe in J from the west coast, but totally out of the way and not that great of a product. Considering that YVR usually has some decent fares of $2500-2800 on KLM, BA and the like, it's generally the better option IMO. YMMV.

It's odd to see a decent sale fare for a hub to hub route? Is this in response to a sale on this route by either *A or SkyTeam?

Iberia A340 and A330 business class
I am looking at ORD-MAD coming back to MAD-LAX
I see that ORD MAD is A340 and MAD-LAX is A330.
Are they both lie flat seats?
I see that some A340s are reclining business class, does anyone know what they fly on ORD-MAD route?

Sorry, but I thought that JFK-MAD was still operated by the old B767. But still, the catering in long haul "C" is better in IB, at least in my opinion.
