41. (1978) Ah… you do love a good milk run and in this post-deregulation world it appears you’ve found one operating between Denver and Monterey, CA. Five stops will be made along the way. Unfortunately, First Class is not offered on this flight. Identify the airline, the five enroute stops and the aircraft type/variant utilized.
36. Wild guess time: Bahamasair to Nassau.

41. Could this have been some hideous commuter air carrier operating a beat up turboprop on this milk run flight? I think not. And I also seem to recall that at one point United was operating at least some if not all of their Boeing 737-200 aircraft in an all-coach configuration. So let's go with UA with the 73S. As for the routing, it may have involved a couple of stops at exotic locations in the Nevada desert (which once upon a time the airline had previously served with the last of its Douglas DC-6B aircraft). Thus I'll guess the routing was Denver - Salt Lake City - Ely - Elko - Reno - San Francisco - Monterey.
