...And those going to LAS are getting the benefits of Blackhat closing yesterday--the SFO-LAS portion is more of a positioning (but operational and bookable) to pick up the big numbers returning after the close of the conference.
Earlier this week it was the reverse, the widebodies on SFO-LAS were for those going to Defcon and Blackhat.
There's also a 772 operating a SFO-LAS-SFO roundtrip later today as well, but looks to be not so full in both directions, especially, surprisingly, coming from Vegas.

Spotted HD 777 on ORD -- MCO route
Mods...feel free to move if there's a more appropriate thread...wasn't sure where to put this.
I'm looking at options for Spring Break 2020 and noticed United has slotted an HD 777 on the ORD -- MCO route.
I travel this route several times a year, and this is the first time I've seen a 777. It's usually a combination of 739s (most frequent), 738s and 757s.
I wonder if this is a consequence of the MAX grounding, as I had previously seen MAXes planned for this route (along with LAX-HNL). The upside is some cheaper fares as compared to the normal highway robbery United charges for this route at Spring Break.
