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.

You are correct, the flight number is DL587, looking to closely at flightaware.com I think.

I see it from 12/22 to 1/2 in both directions. Not sure if it reappears later. Dont know if there is a non-tedious way to check since the PDF timetable currently posted only runs through 12/15...

For non-767 equipment you can use an aircraft code to search a month at a time in ITA Matrix -- see the thread wiki under "one way to search for these on ITA"

Huge fan of domestic widebodies etc. etc., but the time for these two frames to move on is long past. One of the ERs could certainly fill in if DL wants to keep higher capacity on a few domestic routes.

Its too bad there arent any routes where they feel they could use the capacity. I know the A333 uses substantially more fuel than the 767, so it doesnt make sense to fly them half full, but the onboard experience is also heads and tails better...

Werent these supposed to be gone by now? When are we finally going to be free of the lame F seats on them?

It's only the 2 767 frames with domestic F we (front riders) are talking about, not the entire 767 fleet.

I believe this A350 continues on to ICN from Vegas that night.

I've been flying the 763 to Portland a lot lately. I definitely agree, but I will also say I've soured on it a little bit - I've gotten spoiled by the 2ku WiFi on the domestic fleet and always seem to have issues with the lower bandwidth Ku on the 767s - it's either out or so slow that it reminds me of the ATG days. It's amazing how quickly we get spoiled and normalize new things (2Ku versus the atrocious ATG setup). Definitely a step up in coach, but ironically I would actually say if I'm flying F I'd rather fly a 739 or A321 with decent internet unless I'm planning to to try to sleep.
