DFW-ORD extra 777 on Feb 7 both directions

Everyone,

An extra 777 has been loaded for Feb 7th:

9AM DFW-ORD
12:25 ORD-DFW

Since many of you enjoy the 777 service on this route so much, i'm sure some of you might want to take advantage of this before the 777 is dropped from the route permanently. There is plenty of room in F still, but it won't be for long.

Happy booking!

Getting folks back from the Super Bowl, perhaps? (not da Bears, though...)

I wonder where they found the extra unused 777 sitting around?

there's enough slack in the system to accommodate these kind of things. How do you think they do charter flights or equipment subs?

DL is putting an extra CR9 on GRB-DFW.

I hope the airlines realise that half the state of WI is going to travel to TX, an extra segment or two isn't really going to cut it. (Okay, it might be a slight exaggeration probably about a 1/3)

If that were true, then DL would have already sold out their 757 return to GRB. However, AA's 777 to ORD is 85% sold already (more seats than a 757 holds)...
