Did the rescue 777 take them to LAX? How many hours is that? It all seems rather gruelling to me and I don't envy them at all.
There were two relief planes. The first was a 737 chartered from Nolinor that took F and J PAX to Los Angeles (with a refueling stop in Winnipeg). The second was an AF 777 that took the rest of the PAX to Atlanta, where Delta presumably took them to LAX or other of their final destinations.
