I really hope I don't miss the EWR-TLV leg - I just saw that they changed the plane to the new 777

Thanks, as always, for your insights.
I guess it depends from which direction the wind is coming. Erratic, 50 mph gusts could delay things.

CO will not hold the TLV flight for connecting SFO flights. Check weather at EWR--that could delay departures a little.
