I may have put ER there by mistake. 777's to Asia from there definitely. SEA to Asia on the ER definitely. I think I even saw a SFO to Japan line that said 767. Portland too.
Point is the network guys are really happy to have a mix of so many different airplanes to play with. If you are someone who bids the same route every month and hates to change then you are not going to like the next two or three years. These guys are going to swap metal and routes to where ever they make sense and make money. Crew Resources will be more circumspect in moving bases.
BTW, the tall guy you is in charge of CR is going back to the line. He is going to be an ERB in NYC. I asked him why not ATL since he lives there. He said, "someone put out a bid and I can't hold it."
