Does same flight number mean same physical aircraft?
Hi all,
I have an upcoming trip POS-MIA-MCO in early March and on the return leg, the flights from MCO-MIA and MIA-POS have the same flight number (1819). 1819 arrives into MIA at at 6.35pm and departs at 7.50pm for POS.
How do I determine if this is the same aircraft being used for both segments? Is there someway on aa.com where I can find this information before hand?They are both 757's as far as AA shows and I also have the same seat numbers for both segments. (4E)
The reason I am asking, is that if indeed it is the same aircraft, will I be allowed to stay on board while parked at the gate awaiting connecting passengers or do I need to de-plane and wait at the gate to board again?
Thanks for your help!
Anthony.
