bwiadca is accurate on all points in this thread. If someone has proof of a B777 landing here I would love to see it.

The only other correction I would add is the often misunderstood notion that long-haul aircraft are noisier. Prior to covid reductions, AS flew the A321neos acquired from VA to SEA, LAX, PDX, and SFO. They are some of the quietest mainline jets in the industry - much quieter than the plethora of B738s AA and WN use inside the perimeter many times a day.
