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.

DL may also be evaluating demand and determine that demand is down to HNL and thus a 757 on SLC-HNL meets the demand while an A330 would be too much capacity.

I've noticed that DL is being conservative with seat count on a lot of routes. In the past winters, they've routinely used the excess A330s on ATL/DTW to west coast routes. This year they are parking them instead.

I'm booked on an A333 from LAX>ATL early January. Not sure where it's coming to LAX from though.

Apologies, as I'm new to Delta. I recall seeing that flight 1772 was usually a seasonal A330 from PHX to ATL. However, doing some random searches today, I am unable to find that combination of flight or equipment. Does it still exist?

What time of year? DL has A330 slack in winter, but not other times. Also note that DL is very good at matching demand with inventory (meaning right size aircraft).

Elsewhere in this thread, I saw it referenced from November until April. That was last year. But, I had also seen it posted recently online and now I cannot find those references, nor can I find the flights. This flight is set to become my commute soon, in F, so obviously the A330 is a big step up from everything else on the route!

DL 192, the 1025 pm LAX-ATL redeye is a 330-300 on 12/18 and it appears other dates in early Dec that I spot checked.
Currently booked into a C+ C seat, D is open, FG are occupied, 15 open seats up front according to the seat map, but that doesn't mean much.
Booked for 16,000 miles coach LAX-ATL-DCA and immediately upgraded into C+.
But thinking about burning 25,000 AA miles for confirmed FC connection through BNA or IND. DL wants 52,000 miles for FC.

I'm in F on Delta 2808 on Sunday, MCO - SLC. This daily 7:30am flight switched from a 752 to a 763 on Tuesday 11/27/18. Will this be internationally configured? Any way to know? This seems an odd routing to put a wide-body on right now. This is actually the slow season at Disney.
