Also, my follow up question is how long would it take to hold a schedule of half your trips departing out of San Diego on narrow body. I hear it’s a shared base similar to the NY and SouthFL area. Does 737 or Airbus go more senior out of these two airports? Thanks!
Hawaii is only on the 320. The 737s are not ETOPS certified at AA.
SAN is a supplemental base to LAX, currently, the 737 is the only fleet that can have SAN trips (that would change with TA 2.0 approval). Flying tends to shift around, and I didn’t see any SAN trips for August 2023 on the 737 because the 737 flying in SAN was curtailed this month.
The Airbus is generally more senior in LAX, it’s regarded as a nicer airplane with more transcons and Hawaii flying- but there are a ton of redeyes out of LAX.
