LAX>DFW on 789?
Flying today on Flt #99 and looked like the plane was swapped from a 737-8 to a 789 which is inbound from Shanghai. Anyone know if this is repositioning aircraft? Didn’t think there was a daily using this aircraft but could easily be wrong.

I was on one of those new planes. Cool stuff. I asked AA they said, to ensure the plane is making a profit, usually there's only one flight from lax to asian per day, so they will send the plane to dallas and back to keep the plane in the air instead of sitting on the airfield.
