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.

I am getting a companion certificate through Amex Delta Reserve soon. I've never flown Delta One (and Suite) so I am looking to book two domestic Delta one seats starting from JFK. I searched multiple dates between JFK-SEA and JFK-SFO and don't see true Delta One (or Suite) 1-2-1 configuration anywhere. Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask - what routes would you suggest I look into to find what I need (other than JFK-LAX)?

Probably not a better place to deploy it during the winter months so maybe MSP-PHX has enough demand that can reliably fill a 359. Longer routes to deploy it on are perhaps better suited for the 767/A330 instead so they are waiting for INTL demand/cargo to increase on other routes before putting a 359 on them.

Yes, I should have said they are not Delta One lie flat. My bad. I only checked the flight today so that is what I was basing in on not being Delta One configuration. It is still a little odd that they are flying it back as a red eye, so has to be some sort of utilization as I said.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this. I am taking DL301 ATL-LAX (A359) 1630 departure later this month. I have noticed the flight is usually 30-60 mins late, even though the inbound is a morning arrival from JNB. Before it was DL301 it was DL484 and it was the same story. Is it late arriving crew? Holding for connections?
I picked this flight to try out the plane, am doing a longer layover as the next CLT-ATL after mine would only leave 45 minutes cnx and I wasn’t comfortable with that. Doable but no breathing room.
Anyone having any context here? Thank you.

Took this flight today and it was around 25 minutes late on departure. I don't know if this is commonplace but boarding started a few minutes late, not much but even taking that into account, they were not able to get all passengers seated in 45 minutes. that could be common and then once you add in some other small issues from one day to the other, you can see how it easily pushes departure to 30 mins or more late.
