The winter winds being at "10 year highs" is spin from the company itself and nobody else. No surprise then that you state it as fact.
Sorry, but almost this entire post is incorrect. There is no spin involved, nor would I have any need to introduce any.
About the only thing you
did get correct is the fact that the IAD-CDG-IAD route is no longer operated by a 757 but by a different aircraft.
I suggest you take a close look at the statistics and plethora of posts from last year and let us know if you'd like to post an update to the post above
