LATAM Brazil (formerly just known as TAM) operates a pretty cool fifth freedom flight between New York JFK and Toronto. The flight operates twice weekly (Wednesdays and Fridays) with the following schedule: JJ8102 New York to Toronto departing 11:10AM arriving 12:55PM JJ8103 Toronto to New York departing 3:50PM arriving 5:45PM The plane originates in Sao…

That's a shame. I've taken it before and it's the best way to get to JFK. J, in particular, was a great deal.
I think this flight has come and gone before though, so we may see it again.
Ben,
I haven't been around here for a long time. Quick question: Are you still living in hotels, or that lifestyle is behind you? If so, who else from the community can you best recommend on hotel living?
Ben - on a similar note, as fifth freedom routes begin to disappear/change (LAX-GRU on Korean, MAN-MUC on Singapore), it could be a good time for a segment detailing some of the more attractive fifth freedom routes worldwide.
I took tam to Toronto several times. Flights were crazy cheap and I once purchased a Y ticket for $15! Very sad to see this go as the competition on AC, AA, DL, WS, and PD are inferior to the 767 comfort. Sad to see this one go!
I've noticed that availability further out on the CX YVR-JFK flights in J seem to never show up until maybe 2 weeks out. Has that been a thing now with CX? I used to be able to book J on Avios points all the time.
Tried searching for dates in August and September on LATAM's site. Comes up as $2000+ for "Premium Business" class at this point. Shame, I would have loved to give this a try.
I will be flying the Business class in early September. And in that trip I will also fly out from YKF on AA and go see the one of the last 744 at SMX.
If one is booked on this flight in Business, should one expect to be rebooked on AA First class, bearing in mind AA only operates First and Main Cabin on this sector?
Interesting that they still operate this flight on 135.
Fares are outrageous.
Not sure how you got that $90 fare in Biz.
Booked onto business class for 12th October but had no communication from the company telling me the flight has been cancelled...
I took this cool flight in February 2016. I was just looking to book again only to find out it is now gone. I'm extremely disappointed. It was a great flight. A really great flight.

This was a fabulous flight. I was looking for it hoping it was still a thing...to now find it's not. Even though it's an older article, it was very helpful. Thanks for this. /d
