My technique for finding them is to google travel agents in Los Angles using K-town zip codes.
You are mistaken. DL 129 involves a change of aircraft from 757-200 on ATL-SEA to a 763ER on SEA-PEK. A direct flight involving a transfer from domestic to international will almost always involve a change in aircraft.
