So, unless very close to departure dates, I would not go out of my way to book a flight currently scheduled on 77W for any JFK or DFW route.

Since LAX-LHR has only one flight, I would feel more confident that once 77W starts servicing this route aircraft changes will be very unlikely.

Having said that, personally, I put a lot of value on my time in the ground and on my precious personal/vacation days. So I would not waste more than 8 hours just to try the 77W.
