No you would not because the service is only offered Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday out of ORD. They try to run the Kitty Jet those days, but they still offer the special service if a Normal Jet gets subbed in. Sunday will be normal service offerings and likely on a Normal Jet; but it would still be normal service offerings even if the Kitty Jet gets subbed in on a Sunday. Luckily, I got the service AND the actual jet last Tuesday.

For Bali and Sapporo flights, Kitty Service is offered daily. They are more consistent in running the actual jets on those flights (95% of the time) compared to Chicago (50-60% of the time).
