With regard to quiz item #

As for our weather, a beautiful morning has given way to heavy thunderstorms with lots of lightning, thunder and now some flooding being reported locally. Our little pup Miss Bella does not care for the thunder at all but the recently rescued kitten could care less...it's nap time for the little guy whose leg has now healed following a bone fracture injury. BTW, those two are getting along just fine, more or less, and the truce appears to be holding.
Now then.....our man in Alaska has commented that he is not aware of any nonstop service between Los Angeles and San Juan (a distance of 3,385 miles) since the days of Super DC-8 service operated by Delta. So here's a
bonus quiz item.....
In 2001, this airline was operating round trip nonstop service twice a week between LAX and SJU. Identify the airline and the aircraft type flown on the route.
ANSWERED....Up, Up and Away! TWA!
