*A: ZRH-NYC and SFO/LAX ($1400 - $1800)

Lots of availability in June/July/August

https://goo.gl/flights/msKmc - ZRH-JFK non-stop on *A for $1431

https://goo.gl/flights/cYBdi - ZRH-SFO/LAX non-stop from $1715-1815

Can fly on LX/LH/UA/AC/etc...

Pretty solid summer fares. I don't usually see west coast for $1700 which made it interesting.

Good find. But funny how tickets need to be issued by 18JUN18 but travel period is until 08SEP19. As if one could book that far out...

Air Canada, in my experience. The Swiss J seat looks really elegant but little/no privacy between the seats. Dividers are too low. Would be good for a couple traveling together though.

If you travelling solo, the Swiss 'throne' seats are really, really nice IMHO.

Have you flown the LX 77W? I've found the privacy excellent in these seats (which are upgraded from the 330/340), even in the middle pairs.

The issue I have with LX J is the seats are a bit hard and the service is inconsistent. I love the flight times to/from SFO though.

Mapleflot if you are on the B788/9 or B77W with the new seats. Not if you are on the A330/B763.

Still softer than sitting on AC's hard metal seats when the "new" pods deflate:
Deflategate; new executive pods deflating in-flight

Breaks my heart this doesn't work for my dates (end Aug - beginning Sept) for a YYZ trip because this is a heck of a deal, particularly given it includes direct flights! thanks for sharing!

If it makes you feel better, I literally returned TODAY on ZRH - CUN! Most likely can use this to LAX and/or NYC again though, so thanks to the OP.
