18A- for some obscure reason I think Air Canada had a single daily 72S on Vancouver-Toronto
18B- I'm almost positive United had Chicago-Ontario service, but I wouldn't be surprised if Eastern was in the LAX-Atlanta market

It's not Northwest with the DC-10

20- how about United with a 747 ... if I'm not mistaken, it operated LAX-ITO-HNL-LAX
