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.

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

I flew on a 763 on Monday from ATL-MCO (it came in from FLL) and was always scheduled as a 763 when I booked it 2 weeks before. It was using the 76T, which formally did all of the SEA-Asia routes, so I guess DL is just using them on domestic routes right now. I looked at FlightAware the next day and the same ship was doing some really weird routes like SLC-DEN and DEN-LAX.

Looks like there's a 767 ATL-MCO for most of November. Thanks for the advice on the code; I'd tried the codes before but had trouble getting them to work.
I stripped out the miscellaneous 767-related codes and just threw in the 767 itself alongside the others (and pulled the 747 from the mix). Looks like there's at least one day of an A330 thrown in (December 1).

Until March of this year, there was a GRU-MCO flight on a 767. The plane continued on to SLC, I've taken that flight a couple of times. No more unfortunately.

A330 for ATL-PHX during Mar'20
DL1041 Departing ATL at 11:22AM is showing as an A330-300 starting March 11 of next year. In 2019, DL ran a 767-400 during the month. Its a nice ride for the route!

Recently I was reading some fare rules that had long lists of (widebody presumably with flat bed seats) aircraft where the fare wasn't applicable. IIRC in the past it was DL routes with D1 service (versus just D1 aircraft with D1 seats in the "FC" cabin) that tended to be excluded or command a premium price. BTW, these were not cheap fares.

On the other hand, SJC has seen a pretty major DL buildup. SJC-SLC was mostly CR2s just 5 years ago, was upgraded to CR9s and now is virtually all mainline. SJC-SEA didn't exist 5 years ago and now is mostly mainline as well. SJC-ATL went from one 738 to three 739s and now sees 757s regularly.

Best option for a widebody/D1 is PNS-ATL-HNL.
