INV-LHR-YYZ-JFK-SFO-LAX-JFK-LCY is $1,641 on 1/8/20 to 2/11/20 (I just picked some random dates). YYZ-JFK is economy but everything else is business. You get the new Club World Suite and the Baby Bus with this routing. I built the routing on ITA Matrix and then clicked through to the AA Hong Kong site using PowerTools.
cant seem to price the said IT? Any help?

Combine this with the AARP deal to sweeten the pot

Thanks - I haven't booked a ton of things from this forum, but I love playing with ITA Matrix and seeing what I can make work. The ex-AMS fare seems like a considerably better deal than the ex-INV one at this point and you can do similar things, although I can't seem to make the new Club Suite work with that one. AMS-LHR-LAX-LAS-LAX-JFK-LCY/LHR-AMS for $1,312. All kinds of fun ones!

Has anyone succesfully booked this for July, August or September (2019)?

Or do the fare rules not allow any flights before late November 2019?

That's interesting. By these rules it would end at January 2nd, 2020, but I find lots of possibilities to fly the routes from INV for the same prices after January 2nd. Perhaps there's a second fare out there which allows this? (example outbound Jan 9th, inb Jan 11th or 12th, both possible)

I have no clue how to share links to the ITA Matrix, perhaps you can help me how to do it?

But here's one of many options after Jan 2nd:



p.s. I think this link works: https://matrix.itasoftware.com/#view...RFXDwyVgvG802e

Thats 720 TPs & nearly 35000 Avios.

That looks fabulous and also cant wait to get back the fare to HKG via BKK for similar pricing. Such a shame they cut it last year.
