This must be a FT record for time between posts. Jan '99 to June '09...10 years, 5 months! Wow!

CO used to run these regularly between EWR / IAH to reposition for the long hauls. I have flown many a time back in the early 00s between those two on the 777 in the nice BF seats. Also IIRC, it was occasionally used on LAX runs from IAH. Not much of either any longer.
