How often are there equipment changes?
I’m sure this is a difficult one to answer, but in general how far ahead does the schedule get readjusted. I have several Ps flights, and one just switched from the 787-10 to the 757, so quite a different experience. It seems end of Dec there’s only one 787-10 flight between EWR and LAX?

There are a lot of schedule adjustments around T-3 months (give or take a month). Prior to that the schedules (number of daily flights is typically close +/- 1, but timing is approximate) and equipment (often using a single type to cover all of a family) are really just notional.
