So question - that means there will be 2 747's in ICN at once. What do they do with the one that canceled, ferry it back empty? Or do another random flight number and fly a small number of pax on it? Curious.

They can do all three,

In this case it appears that for this one they are flying a Special Section with Pax as UA 2759

It looks like both flights, 2759 and 892 are completely full in economy, both have space in biz though.

2759 is scheduled for a 1pm departure.

Interesting!

Flew out of NRT yesterday (on NH ) and one of the GUM flights was 6 hours delayed... But because NRT they had a table by the gate with a ton of snacks and water and the ground staff weren't hiding from the pax ^

8/10 UA115 GUM-NRT 738 delayed 6 hours due to aircraft maintenance
8/10 UA114 NRT-GUM 738 delayed 6 hours due to late inbound

8/9 UA79 EWR-NRT 772 delayed 2h30 due to aircraft maintenance

Looks like UA124 (Newark to Athens) last night has diverted to Terceira, an island that's part of the Azores in the middle of the Atlantic.

Currently on 871 SFO-TPE, Departed 2:22 late due to mechanical. First delay was 30 min, then hour, then plane swap + 30 min. Not a bad delay given the time to turn over the plane so quickly. From flightaware, they had swapped a incoming NRT bird for one that came in from EWR. Crew is a bit short tonight but at least the 77W is a nice seat. Hoping I can make my 9:10pm flight to HK with a current arrival time of 759PM.

Good luck. Currently scheduled arrival time is 8:18 pm. I hope your HK flight departs the same terminal (T2).

Landed and pulled into the gate @ 8:08, I guess "luckily" my CX flight out of T1 was delayed till 11:15 - still in the very nice CX lounge as I type this. Made the day 3/4 flights with delayed, but will only get into HK 2 hours late so all in pretty good.

I'm in BGR waiting on a flight and UA986 from CDG is on the arrival board. Checking into this further, it's the CDG-ORD 772 flight that left 4.5 hours late and is stopping in BGR. Anyone know why it's stopping at BGR?

Re crew due to late departure out of CDG is my bet.

UA986 CDG-ORD 772 4.5hr late due to aircraft maintenance

it now shows 'CDG-ORD NON-STOP OVERFLY BGR'

so we'll see if they stop in BGR or not

Any first hand or more detailed info on how this went?
