This is presumably the same summer schedule change we've seen for the past two years. Note that only through May 21 equipment has changed so far, but practice has been to roll the change out a month or two at a time, four to five months in advance. Hopefully this is the last year of this swap, with new narrow-body planes with lie-flat seats to join the fleet (was 737MAX10, now more likely A321XLR) in 2026..
So far, BOS-SFO-BOS is still showing 757-200s through summer 2026 (except 1x/day 7M9). So if they are going to make the summer season change for 2026, presumably we'll see it in the next few weeks. Sadly, it doesn't look iike Max10s or A321XLRs with lie-flats will join the fleet in 2026 to augment the narrow-body lie-flat fleet. The only hope is that arriving 787s will help cascade some 752s back to domestic service (i.e. 787s replace 777s/767s that replace 752s etc.). Of course they have to keep lie-flats on EWR-SFO/LAX with the p.t.s. service commitment (includes 752s and 777As).
