Default Common layovers for 747 ANC or LAX?

Can I get some details on the common layover cities&hours for the 747 trips out of LAX or ANC?

How common is a layover in ICN?
TIA!

You’re asking a lot here.
ICN is the hub in Asia so you’ll see it a lot from either base.
LAX/ANC have about a 80-90% overlap on destinations and times vary from min rest to 2.5 days.
LAX base has HNL/SYD in addition.

You can die and go to heaven but you will have a layover in ICN on the way there.

ICN is one of the black holes in the Atlas galaxy, no matter your seniority, no matter your base, no matter what line you bid….you’re gonna end up in ICN.

True statement. We used to stay in ICN a lot on the 767. Those days are gone as of this month.

Sir.
Is it also possible to consider the experience of boarding a jumpseat from ICN to ANC or boarding a jumpseat from ANC to ICN as an easy way to commute?
