But really, with the downgrade to end all downgrades, they might as well schedule departure at 3AM, because no matter what, I'm not flying it as long as NRT-SIN-NRT is a real UA aircraft.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember tht US carriers departing out of SIN have always left at an ungodly hour of the morning. I dnt think it's the departure times all you UA fans have a problem with, I think it's tht there taking away your precious 747 on tht route and are upset tht it's being replaced with a 737. Yes the intl f class is going away but I think those 747s are better used on overseas flights longer thn 7 hrs. My wishful thinking would be to put CO 752s on the intra-Asia flights maybe base a few in GUM. take the 752s of the domestic flights and replace thm with 739ERs and 757-300s.
