DEN-RDU: UA had a nonstop 735 flight a few years ago. This was very convenient for me. A GA once told me that one of the phone book companies had multiple employees on this flight each day. They would send them from their office in DEN to their office in the Research Triangle..

ORD-PWM: It would be really nice if UA could upgauge this route to an E170, or even an A319! Every time I fly to PWM, the flights are packed, and F usually has three or four paid F fliers.

MCI-SFO: Currently UA runs this route with a CR7. I'd like to see it replaced with an A320.

Some day, perhaps...

ORD-TLV and EWR-TLV are probably good examples of the types of routes that could be opened up by the 787. ORD-TLV doesn't have the volume to justify a 772 or 744 and its too far for a 763 but the 787 could have both the range and the economics to make it work.
