Air India First Class ex:US- India ~$3500
I know that Air India isn’t exactly on the top of the charts when it comes to luxury airlines but for a flight originating in US anything at this price besides BA’s “first class” is unheard of. As always posting for info if this ain’t worth it to you or Air India is a horrible airline no one asked. Looks available EOS

And not only that, if the flight gets cancelled and you need a refund ( a flight they cancelled ), stand by for typical Indian bureaucracy... my flight last March ( yes 2020 ), still waiting for my refund. Same with TAP Portugal, they cancelled the flights and still waiting, flights were in August, buyer beware. Just over $5000 USD outstanding between them

Here is a Trip Report from Lucky... Nothing to write home about...
You can also use Qatar Qsuites from LAX for $2832 which I would talk every day of the week and twice on Sunday over Air India...

Fare class A only earns 100% on UA, although it does earn more n other *A carriers.

This flight is on a 777, so F is present and 1-2-1. J is 2-3-2. Overall, I would avoid. Aircraft interiors are ghastly.

I did say this was only for information, and I should note I would never buy this either.
but maybe some wealthy-ish Indian National wanted to go home on a direct flight would be happy to know this price
