29. Well, according to the July 1, 1983 OAG United was operating not one but two B767-200 nonstops from Long Beach to Denver on a daily basis and was also the only airline operating nonstop service between LGB and DEN at this time. Here's the sched for the flight in question.....

UA 488: Long Beach (LGB) 4:00p - 7:00p Denver (DEN) 7:50p - 10:30p Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP)
Op: Daily
Service classes: F/Y
Equip: 767

And the other 767 flight from LGB to DEN (UA 694) continued on to Philadelphia (PHL).
