How do you know which flight will be operated by the 787? It doesn't show in the online booking or the schedule.
I'm flying on Oct 5 and 9 and would like to try and book the 787 if I can figure out which flights it will be operating on.
Thanks!

The schedule could change, so you never know...
The schedule looks awfully familiar to LA455/LA456 . Also, the 787 will initially be deployed on the SCL-EZE route 5x weekly. Operating on Mo, We, Th, Fr, and Su.

Just flew on the inaugural 787 flight to EZE. The entire travel experience was top notch! The flight itself was very exciting and LAN did an excellent job all around. The new IFE system is awesome! Can't wait for the 787 to be deployed on the SCL-LAX route!

Did you sit in coach or business?
If coach, was the cabin full? Did it feel cramped (due to the new narrower 17" width seats)?
