AA: LAX-NRT-SIN rt in PE ~1400 late JAN

All AA flight numbers with JAL flying to SIN. 26K EQMs, ~1350 EQDs via aa.com. Might get mileage earning basis on aavacations, not sure. Sample date 1/26-1/29

AA has had a ton of cheap PE fares to Asia for some time now... FWIW I could not get any AA PE to Asia to price as a bulk or special fare on aavacations...

I'm pricing to PEK as O*. For anyone with a visa.... Didn't save a ton of cash but the EQMs.... Oh the EQMs!

What dates? I can reliably get LAX-PEK in PE for $1223 via AAVacations ($1136 on GF), but always fare code P (ie, April 2-6).

Has anyone actually flown PE on AA and can compare it to PA on CX, JL or BA?

I flew AA 777 PE from Lax to DFW to test the seat out since I want to fly it to HKG. The seat was great, pretty much like domestic first but with a little more recline. Can’t vouch for the service and amenities since on a domestic flight AA flys that seat as a standard main cabin extra. I would definitely fly it based on seat alone.

Thanks for this one. I just booked RDU-DFW-NRT-SIN in PE, all-in for $1,500. And I could confirm two SWU to fly all AA segments in Business/First, only NRT-SIN is JAL PE. 31k miles!

Not seeming to find any * classes on AAV on this or any other of the "deals" routes mentioned on FT lately, just straight P, S, V, etc. Must just not be hitting the right itineraries.

I tried a few combinations. Some, like you, were S or V but others were O*. Could origin be the driver? I'm in Houston to hopefully get my China visa so we can take advantage of the cheap fares and do AAV for some early in the year EQDs (while I still have SWUs.

Whats your origin? Are you using PVG or PEK as dest?
