I have to imagine there's demand for at least one or two daily flights with the number of connections that flight is fed by. It's just strange that it's at least 4 daily every other day of the week then randomly zero on Tuesday.

JFK DFW route
JFK DFW non stops seemed to be loaded and then disappearing monthly when the schedules for the following month get uploaded. This has been happening for a few months so there hasnt been a non stop operating on that route.
Now I am looking for February 2021 and it looks like AA already cut the route for January (earlier then for other months), but something strange is happening in February. The route starts getting listed around Feb 11 which incidentally coincides with a switch for AA LHR JFK flight number change from AA105 to AA107 with still just one daily flight operating but with a different flight number.
Question is whether to think that AA really is planning on restarting these non stops JFK DFW or its likely they will be cut after Feb 10 as well? Need to plan accordingly for my Feb 21 flight.

Feb 10 is the last day of the new covid-era schedule. Everything after Feb 10 is the old pre covid schedule that will change significantly. I would assume the schedule will be similar to january and plan accordingly.

Any clue on when the schedule for Feb 11 and after that month would get updated? Last week of January like it was in previous months?

Dec 1 - Jan 4 schedule was adjusted on the weekend of Oct 31
Jan 5 - Feb 10 schedule was adjusted on the weekend of Nov 21 (due to Thanksgiving)
I would *speculate* that the schedule of Feb 11 and after will be adjusted around the weekend of Dec 19 or that of Jan 9 (due to Christmas and New Year)
