I usually fly into SNA but got a better deal to LAX. I am using miles with USAir. For SNA, I would have had to connect in Las Vegas both ways and could get a coach ticket for 50,000 miles. For LAX, I got non-stop and first class both ways for the same 50,000 miles. The flights leave PIT about 15 minutes apart but I get there 2 1/2 hours earlier. Seemed worth the extra long bus ride!
