Okay, VIASA then operating a... DC-10-30 - but only because I don't know if it still had its A300s at that time...

71. This airline was operating the only direct service from New Orleans (MSY) to Portland, Maine (PWM) at this time with two stops being made en route. Identify the air carrier, the two stops and the equipment. First class was available on this flight which was operated with a twin engine jet.

United used to run into Bangor on an odd routing through ALB back in the 80s. Maybe they still did in the 90s. As such, I'll posit United running a 737-300 MSY-ORD-ALB-BGR
67. Ah, the equipment wasn't a DC-10-30....nor was it an A300 or any other wide body type. And we await the tap in.....

71. United is correct! And the first stop was indeed made at Chicago O'Hare (ORD). However, the second stop was not made at Albany but was made at a city in a nearby state to the east.

Please guess again!
