DAL A330 and 350 in LAS today
 
I was driving by the airport and saw a Delta 330 landing on 26L. I was curious if it was a charter so I looked up arrivals in FlightAware. The 330 was from NRT. There was also an A350 from ICN which landed shortly thereafter. Both Flight numbers didn’t look like charter flight number, and it didn’t look like diversion based on flight path. Does anyone know what is going on with these flights?

Just a guess, but special flights for the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas. I’m sure all the Korean electronics companies are there.

United added as many as 20 flights on selected days this week and up-gauged many flights, including 777s from SFO, all for CES.
