Unstacked out of a regular line?

My category has three long Asia trips in open time for next month - any one of which would satisfy the LCW. The problem is, none of them operate over thanksgiving. So, instead of using one of those trips to build me a regular line, PBS dumped me into reserve. Is this kosher?

Lockheed Martin says in 5 years they will have the jet engine off of gas, and on to fusion.

That falls in line with used 777LRs being 3each for $350M.

Someone in ATL must dislike LAX ER-B's...Seems like it's taking longer and longer each month to get them out.

DTW, NYC and MSP ERB are behind the backdoor. Refinery made 16 million in Q3.

Question: with the 747s leaving, can the new 330s coming do routes like jfk-hnl Dtw-nrt? Or will those routes have to be done by the 777 or any airplane not ordered yet
