This schedule is actually showing a 772 for flight 175 from now thru March 27th (DFW-NRT). The schedule switches over to a 77W when 175 switches from landing at NRT to HND. While the schedule you referenced shows the plane today (3/3) is a 772, the plane is actually a 77W that is flying. While the schedule looks like a good resource, it does not appear helpful in this instance.
I have a query out on how long it’s expected 773 to be subbed in that way it has been on this route.
I know next 773 entered its heavy check in TUL. In addition 12 widebodies are in Summer Prep currently so they have obviously sped that up/added additional scope to the checks to take advantage of slack. I’d -assume- the 773 will stay on throughout March , but am trying to confirm.

Bizarre how the schedule shows that! Wish I could have been more helpful. Thanks (as always) to our savior, JonNYC. robertablake, I hope you end up with the 77W in both directions! Best of luck
