Co41
Seems that CO41 is going 753 for Sept and Oct. Has that always been the case for those two months? Or is this some sort of test? Would be nice to see more 753s on the EWR-SFO routes

Funny how bringing the 753 back up to 24 F seats made it from one of the least desired CO aircraft to one of the more desired ones.
The 753 on this route should be like printing money in F.

I'll be interested in seeing how many times that flight has F seats for sale a day or two prior to departure.

This is so true. I have typically avoided the 753 in the past, but recently have changed my tune. I am going to STX next week and decided to take earlier flights home as the SJU-EWR leg was on a 753 (as is my flight down).

And, even if you don't get upgraded, the 753 has some of the best Y seats in the fleet, as well as a larger number of exit rows and bulkheads with extra legroom than the rest of the domestic fleet.
I've always loved the plane, even when it had 12F and was impossible for most non-platinum elites to upgrade on.
