I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the only year this happens, my guess is it’s a way to keep the wide bodies flying and crews current while the international side is essentially shut down. Once we turn the corner on Covid they’ll most likely go back to the NEO on DFW-ANC. The rest of the widebodies coming into SEA are probably going to be a feeder/positioning for crews and aircraft for when AA starts flying to India and London out of there.
