And AA's very deliberate about keeping its international planes on international routes with the exception of a few re-positioning flights between hubs. The only for-demand (vs. re-positioning) non-international 777 flight I can think of is BOS-SDQ on weekends, and that's flown to increase utilization on weekend days that BOS-LHR doesn't fly. All other routes--ORD-DFW, DFW-LAX, LAX-MIA--are done strictly for moving the 777s through the system.
