I was curious they pulled the 321T off the LAX JFK runs and put the triple on it. Right now it's only for nov. We'll have to see after the Dec schedule loads what happens then. Amazingly, we used to do 12 a day between those city pairs on the 321T. It's just so hard to imagine all the business we used to do, seems like so long ago.
yep, a 777 had as many premium seats as 321t, but we just don’t need the frequency right now. Another route is jfk-lhr, we used to have 4 times a day in the triple, now done to just one, and it rarely has more than 50 people on it, I wish this was just a bad dream.
