Almost 100% of the trips are international. There are times where they throw some domestic in, maybe a DTW-MCO-DTW turn, or a few other trips around the holidays. But you never know, this month there are DTW-SFO-DTW trips. I think in Jan there was MSP-Cancun-MSP or ATL-Cancun-MSP, I don't know who did the MSP trips, but ATL did the ATL-Cancun-ATL. But it's more of a random event, but seems to be happening a bit more these days.

Just because the trip goes DTW-(international destination)-DTW doesn't meant that DTW would fly it. As Crew Resources is fond of say, no base owns their trips, It depends on staffing for each base.

But- here are typical DTW 330 destinations from what I can tell: AMS (lots), FCO (summer), PEK, NGO, PVG, GRU, FRA (starting this summer), HNL. I'm probably missing some, I'm not on the 330 now.

There is no real way to see what the summer trips are that I know of. Bid packages are only around for a short time on Deltanet.
