Inaugural/early 787 flights FT meet-up thread
 

United has announced that commercial service with the 787 Dreamliner will begin on 11/4, with the inaugural flight from Houston to Chicago at 7:25 a.m (UA1116).

With quite a few FTers booking UA 787 Dreamliner flights for 11/4, I am starting this thread to collect itineraries for possible meet-ups in flight or at Clubs before or after those flights. I am also including flights in the morning of 11/5, as some may use some of those flights to return from their 11/4 flights.

If you want to be included, just post to this thread and I will add you to this master post. State your cabin (F or Y), seat # if you are so inclined, and any brief remarks you care to share.

The 11/4 flights are the earliest flights on the schedule at this time. Should UA add any earlier flights, I will add them to this list if they are significant (inaugural or close to it) and there are FTers on it.

Here are the flights, sorted by departure time.

Same for me!!! My bday is just a few days before! :)

Guys, I think this thread is for 11/4 and 11/5 (back up as if it cancelled on 11/4), not any other dates after, as it would be no different than any other flights since it operates daily.

IAH-LAX Nov 4 F

I've just changed my flight, so now I'm connecting from UA1510 to UA1209. 2 787 flights in 1 day :)

All on 04NOV:

UA1116 IAH-ORD: Nonrev
UA1694 LAX-IAH: 23A

Flying SFO - IAH - CLE - YYZ on 10 November, the first two legs on the 787. I'm booked in 2L from SFO, and in 3L from IAH. Totally worth burning an RPU for these two flights. And this will bring me to 100,174 PQM after the flights are posted. Cheers!
