Confused. Thread title says YVR, post discusses LAX/SFO, link is for LAX, but prices as US$1350 approximately.

Note American airlines is only US$854 via Kayak link provided and gets Flagship Business from LAX-MIA.

The COPA flight PTY-GEO is not lie flat and is approximately same length of time as MIA-GEO. AA wins, for $500 less and on AA 77W in Flagship Business, no brainer.

$883CDN. GF link.

This fare showed up here a couple years ago.
The previous version allowed a stop in California for a small surcharge.

I was thinking to use this as a stepping stone to Brazil, but surprisingly Guyana has no direct air links to neighboring countries like Brazil and Colombia? Hotels there aren't cheap, there's Marriott there, but more expensive than YVR for this month. CM's both hard and soft products are poor... Thanks OP for keep bringing deals, but I'm looking for reasons to go there.

LAX to GEO via MIA one-way is 402 USD, on a 777 with lie-flat seats. A pretty decent "hidden city" fare for MIA.

I'm confused! Where's the YVR part?

Defending the OP , we can all make typos when Copy/Paste deals from our sites to FlyerTalk... But this seems to be an LAX/SFO fare...
Alerted mods to change titles...

Why is everyone saying this is an LAX fare? The link includes all options, but the cheapest ($704) clearly indicates a YVR departure...
Even Google Flights supports this: https://www.google.com/travel/flights/s/dW3E

The link provided is for Kayak and for departing LAX. Not sure where you're getting YVR.

Folks!

Multiple origins but far the cheapest is YVR.



Seemed obvious to me

More mileage from YVR. YVR is historically a much more expensive market. I hear good things about the CM 737MX seat (catering, staff and lounge is a complete pass).

LAX is a great deal too IMHO.

I def will do one of these - never been to GEO.

Here's the issue after looking yet again. Kayak only allows one origin when viewing on mobile view. The only way you see multiple origins is when viewing on desktop view.

Ah that's odd. Time for a new search engine maybe...

Does UA operate in any of the segments? It doesn't seem like it, and I don't think CM flights will count towards my lifetime mileage.
