NRT - BJX
 
Hello, I need to fly NRT-BJX early next year in business class. I am looking for the best available fare with *.

The cheapest (including non-Star carriers) I found so far is a Delta discount business NRT-LAX-BJX cost 390K yen (approx 3550USD).

I also found an SQ discount business NRT-LAX return for 198K yen (approx. 1800USD), which I find good value.

But I am not familiar with the options for LAX-BJX. Does anyone know which carrier provide the best fare with Star? As it is a 3.5h trip, I could do either Y or C. Thank you!

I remember seeing some 120k Yen return business class fares on SQ for NRT-LAX; I'd suggest you search the SQ forum.

Then I'd advise you buy a discount Y ticket LAX-BJX. No Star carrier serves BJX, so I'd suggest you buy the cheapest carrier (perhaps AA with More Room in Coach might be the most comfortable bet?).

Regards,
Alex

I stand corrected! Am I right in thinking it's not a daily service?

Regards,

Thanks Alex and kempis.

The non-stop LAX-BJX is an Aeromexico operated codeshare with Mexicana.
I guess I got to take advantage of Mexicana still being * member but the price (from where I am at least) seems to be a bit higher with Mexicana.

KE business class is apprx. 120K yen right now. Strangely, TG is more expensive than SQ. Now going to the SQ forum to check.

Just checked, and I was thinking of RG for Y120k return - sorry! SQ was 198k, the same fare you've found.

Mea Culpa!

Nonetheless - 198k is an excellent fare for what you get (arguably the best J product there is).

Regards and Apologies,
Alex
