Best Way to Book a US Trip?

[whereishome]

Looking at something for the June holidays...

Potentially thinking CNS-LAX-SFO-JFK-CNS.

Tried to price it on the QF website - keep on getting "Cannot Find Itinerary" errors. What does that mean?

Also am wondering if I would be better off going to a TA and finding out about a OW Pacific fare for it, and booking the SFO-JFK returns separately and getting PNRs combined...

Is there anyway of getting a price online for a Pacific fare? The only OW thing you can price is a RTW and my routing breaks the rules.

The circle pacific fare are coded xCIRnn where x=[A|D|L] and nn=[22|26|29SA]

E/F shows them when you search for ATW fares.

You may try Book Cheap Flights with iFly - iFly and do an advanced search to book this outright.

Nice!! I'm maybe thinking of just doing West Coast with some Vegas action on the side but that site is great!

My suggestion would be a CNS-(bne)-LAX-JFK-LAX-CNS (assume QF) with a LAX-LAS-SFO-LAX sidetrip. US Airways used to sell cheap airpasses over those sectors, but Southwest has some pretty amazing deals if you book early enough (I did LAX-LAS for $19+tax in March).

Alternatively, CNS-GUM-HNL-SFO-EWR-LAS-LAX-HNL-GUM-CNS return on CO (for CO see an agent- the website doesn't handle complex itineraries well).

If you try a site like Jetabroad you could book CNS-JFK return with a LAX stopover. Then a separate LAX-SFO return. In June this prices at $2311 (economy). Also try ITA software. You can't book on this but it will give you a multi-city itinerary which you can provide to a TA.
