Man, it’s still a mystery to me why LAX gets DXB, AUH, and DOH, and SFO only gets DXB (Pre-pandemic).

In December Qatar will serve SFO

Nice photos too!

AUH

SFO used to get AUH, but it wasn’t profitable enough for Etihad to continue flights compared to LAX (so they stopped in 2017, I think). LAX also gets JED & RUH, while SFO gets DXB & DOH (next month, QR service begins).

Nice pictures! This is one of my favorite routes to fly, doesn’t get any better than this :D
