Once CO joins Star Alliance, everyone will have the opportunity for the 773 and 772LR.

Over the past three years I have tried to burn off my remaining US Air miles and got to fly a lot of old SQ 772s, NH's new 773s, and in Feb. I have an AC 77L with the business suite scheduled. The new Air Canada 777s are the only ones with personal air vents. NH has seven across in business, but great service.

Does CO get an extra slot at NRT if it replaces 2 daily 738 flights with a single 777?

Remember the old days when they had all those DC10's in GUM. The DC10 with the pub lounge flew GUM-SPN-HKG-GUM, and other routes. The DC10-30s to HNL had a real first class cabin.
