The last time I can remember flying a widebody domestically was back in November of 2002 when I flew a 744 from ORD to DEN.

I'm not complaining and if I get upgraded I really won't complain.
763 for ORD-IAH actually started since the merger (I flew that 3 class 763 down to IAH for UA's 787 inaugural flight ! So you know how long it had been), it stopped for a while and now come back again.

ORD-SFO had multiple widebodies per day up til the merger, there was daily 744 even as late as 2010 !
