I think you meant "I didn't know the mobile application had that facility", which would have allowed me to reply that "the Mobile facility has that application."

Who else has lots of time on their hands?

A bunch of A330s are parked in PIT, and 2 A333s flew to ROW today, two more to go there as well.

ROW? Their days may be numbered, unless someone converts them to freighters.

With 2 4 2, combined with the seats I think they are the best wide-body Y class aircraft in the fleet.

Yes, J is tired.

Lets hope AA paid the proper amount to park, otherwise the parking wardens might give them a ticket.... pilots check the meter before you leave your plane

ROW? They may be picking up some "new" kinds of passengers. Perhaps to serve man?

That's yet to be seen, but not entirely unlikely. N273AY and N276AY were flown there yesterday, and N277AY is about to depart: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N277AY

Looks like the A333s may be done, in addition to the E190s and some older 738s.

In addition to the retirement of 34 Boeing Co 757s and 17 Boeing 767s announced just two weeks ago, American now plans to also sunset a batch of 76 Boeing 737s it acquired between 1999 and 2001, nine Airbus SE A330-300s and 20 Embraer 190s, the people said.
