Your second flight will be a three-stop direct flight straight into Fairbanks. Identify both airlines involved, the routing including all three stops on the second flight, and the two aircraft types involved.
Well, I have a feeling the first flight from Durango to Mazatlan operated by Aeromexico featured an airplane built in Long Beach. And as we now know this AM flight wasn't operated with a DC-9-30, that means I probably need to go long or short with regard to the airframe. So let's go long: MD-80.
Tu eres el hombre, JL! Correcto!
