This wiki is intended to contain a list of opportunities to fly internationally configured wide-body aircraft within the United States, aside from the usual JFK-LAX/SFO 767s and newer domestic DeltaOne routes. This is a collaborative wiki, not an OP-maintained thread; please contribute by editing the wiki directly as you become aware of regularly scheduled or repositioning flights. Schedules change far more frequently than community members have time to update this wiki; therefore please verify the equipment before purchasing a flight.

These international narrowbodies would normally also fly the domestic DeltaOne routes JFK-LAX/SFO, BOS-LAX, and DCA-LAX.

During COVID-19, when many international routes are suspended, they can be found on some domestic routes (including Hawai'i):

Regular service through March 2021:
JFK-LAS
JFK-PHX
JFK-SAN
JFK-SEA
JFK-SFO
JFK-SLC
LAX-KOA
SEA-KOA
SEA-OGG

Positioning / one-offs:
SLC-SEA
SLC-LAS
SLC-BOS 4x a week
BOS-LAX
JFK-MEX
JFK-SJU
LAX-HNL

one way to search for these on ITA

This Delta Cargo schedule lists wide body routes by region.



Looks like the A350 is running between LAX and ATL, Sunday only Red-Eye to ATL, Monday evening only return to LAX. Through Sept. 6th

757-200 international configure SAN

Not exactly a wide body but lie flat delta one config 757-2 is on JFK/SAN and return red eye! Using that red eye to go back east after thanksgiving. I tried several random dates in November and it seems to be part of the regular schedule. Nice!

Yep - this coming Sunday (10/25). Mrs. ATOBTTR is on this flight (it wasn't an A330 when I booked it for her, which wasn't that long ago). But Mrs. ATOBTTR won't make FO till the end of the year so no shot at the UG to the front cabin for her on this one.

EDITED TO ADD: Updated the wiki to reflect this flight.

Also updated to the wiki: SEA-DTW on the same day (10/25) is showing an A330-200 on the SEA-DTW redeye. Guessing an A330-300 is heading TO SEA while an A330-200 is coming FROM SEA based on seasonal capacity adjustments for each market.

A pair of 76W's operating ATL-SEA and SEA-ATL on Veteran's Day next week (11 November). The bird operating ATL-SEA is not the same bird operating SEA-ATL, as the SEA-ATL flight departs before the ATL-SEA arrives so I'm guessing it's just some shifting of aircraft through the system.

I'll be on 1132 on 11 November (SEA-ATL). If you will be as well, PM me.

The Monday 8:20 ATL-SEA flight (2039) seems to have been upgraded to a 767-300 for the time being - flew it this morning (11/2), and see it for my next few upcoming reservations

Updated the wiki to clean up the now-ended 747-400 HNL-ATL flights. I guess some of the demand will have to be routed via LAX in summer 2016 with the smaller A330-300 on that route - those 744 HNL flights seemed to run quite full in summer 2015.

I used a schedule change to move onto this one and now will get D1 seats instead of domestic F seats.

Maybe this allows DL to accelerate the 757 refurbs

There will be so many schedule and aircraft changes between now and April, it hardly matters
