I just don't understand some of the routings from airlines. Like trying to go to South America from LA. It's virtually impossible without routing through Miami (which is the worst airport in the world, btw). You can go as far as Mexico City, but then it's like the Berlin Wall. You can't get to Argentina, Chile or Brazil from the west coast without routing through something. It's bizarre.

Gulfstream seems a tad bit pricy for regular long haul. But a CRJ1000ER ETOPS could probably drum up some business.
