FJ's new NAN/SFO seasonal route
it seems either FJ's new seasonal route NAN/SFO (twice a week for most of DEC & JAN) either isn't working or because it's new & seasonal, people just don't look for it. I found it by accident, when searched for SYD/LAX & SYD/NAN/SFO/LAX popped up. So changed search to SYD/SFO & $1299 return SYD/SFO/SYD departing late DEC & early JAN, coming home 22JAN, which is very cheap for that time of year, considering those dates will suit most families with school kids perfectly.
It seem from SYD one flight a week is a A332 all the way, so they can call it direct, but other one is their new A333 connecting with A332.
