DL A330 Domestic at all?

[micstatic]

Just wondering if DL will have any domestic flights with these birds.

Outside of MSP/DTW/ATL-HNL, none at this time.

Equipment swaps do tend to pop up every now and then - SEA-MSP sees a good number of them.

thanks for the reply. Hopefully one day ATL will have some to places like JFK, DTW, LAX.

ATL does have 777 service to DTW and LAX, and it's not unusual for 777s to pop up on JFK-ATL (and there are scheduled 767-300ERs on that route too).

According to FlightAware, there's a Delta A330-300 in the air right now MSP-PHX:

It happens for sport events to get a A330 into PHX, rare though! PHX only gets domestic fleet usually (rarely a BE B757 will fly the route)

they also have DTW-ATL on the 772 (but according to the reward calendar they dont fly this route period...)

+1 I was on one last week from MSP-SEA. It's a great bonus.

Delta Flight 2440 MSP-DTW was an A330-300 yesterday. Normally it's a B757-300.

SEA-ATL seems to be an A332 every Monday. The flight number keeps changing, though (but it's still 11:45am). The wife and kids are flying BF on the 21st. I was surprised to find it, and booked it in BUP immediately.

Atl-SEA at 8:20am on Mondays also.

Also goes to ATL-LAX and LAX-ATL daily starting July 1st

Wow, good find. I was just on the 11:xx am flight from SEA-ATL last Monday and it was a domestic 763. No A330 in the schedule at the time.

It appears the A332 will operate between SEA/ATL on Mondays through at least August. I have checked the end of Sept and it's already out of the schedule.

Here's the other piece of good news - at least on Mondays the BusinessElite configured 767 will continue to do one turn on the SEA/ATL route. This is in addition to the A332 on Mondays through July/August; but the BE 767 continues at least through October.

PS - you can always tell the difference between domestic and BE configured 767's on Delta.com by looking at the Equipment Type. The domestic 767 will be listed as "Boeing 767-300" while the BE configured 767 will be listed as "Boeing 767". Most of you probably already know that though.

From 01JUL10 to 13AUG10, DELTA is to operate Airbus A330-200 aircraft on Atlanta – Los Angeles DL1755/1554 service. From 14AUG10, 767-300 operates this flight pair.

Boeing 777-200LR aircraft has been pulled out from this route for Summer on this route, and is operating one-way Atlanta to Detroit.
