If it changed to a321, I'd reroute through DFW-MIA on 772/77w/787, MIA-LIM on 787 so I wouldn't have to fly the narrowbody if I can. MIA-LIM full service, plus you'll get open FL. worth the detour.
That's such a downgrade and unenjoyable experience. Very sorry to hear OP. even an evening flight or daytime, one might want to take a nap or at least have that option!
Thank you for your kind words. Sadly both DFW-LIM and MIA-LIM and returns have both been downgauged to A321neos for my travel dates. May I ask what “open FL” refers to?
