From: 777
On the way back, typically for the 777, it's around 60k. Sometimes less, but they are doing a pretty good job filling it up. A lot of our cargo flights come back through Guam. A few through NRT. Almost no cargo on or off at the middle stations.
It seems the 787's are doing well too. I don't know about their cargo carrying ability without people.

I’d love to know how this impacts the furlough picture. Sure I get that there’s plenty of doom and gloom to go around, but this has to mitigate some modest percentage of the international flying that’s ground to a halt.
Even if it’s not the same amount of revenue (or even close) it involves a non-trivial number of crews and seems to help us tread water until we can reopen borders with universal rapid testing for int’l pax or a vaccine.
