We are looking to purchase return business class flights to the US in November this year. Prefer to depart from MEL but SYD is fine as well.
We have to be in Las Vegas on 5 November to start a coach tour, and we have a cruise that finishes in Cartagena, Colombia on 13 December.
Was going to just book MEL to LAX return, and then book individual flights from CTG back to LAX, but when I looked at a multi-city booking MEL-LAX and then CTG-MEL (with Qantas & American) it worked out cheaper ($13,740 vs $12,584).
Is that right or am I doing something wrong?
Also with the CTG-MEL flights, are the transit times too short?
