Thanks LRD. Booked 10/8 to DFW and 10/10 from DFW for $93 RT for both my girlfriend and I! Looking forward to being on one of the first flights of this new aircraft. I really would like to try Premium Economy and hoping we'll be able to snag those seats once the seat map is available to select seats. If I do, I kind of hope my complimentary upgrades don't clear, at least one of the ways, kinda 😉

Yeah, it was a bit more on AS but worth it for me; MVP Gold means I can refund it at anytime (ie if they swap the plane).

Looks like it. Both LAX and PHX seem to have dried up.

Normally, I would ask the mods to slap a 'fare gone' on this thread, but I think it's better left open. . . just in case posters want to comment on their (in)ability to select Premium Economy seating -- hopefully, soon.

I just called in to the Plat desk and they said that they are hoping that the seating chart will be up and running around next week.

So let the speculation begin; what will be the best seat?

I heard that too. Probably because the built in minibar, personal chef, and massage chair exclusive to 10E.

While the 787-9 low fare may be gone, there are a handful of $76 same-day turns ex-DFW on the 777 both out- and inbound.

Sample dates: 18OCT. Also, 22OCT.

Hint: Google flights won't initially show these fares until you select a higher fare for a one-day turn, and then it wakes up and tells you that a $76 same-day turn is available.
