DEN or ORD will get a 777 base. My money is on DEN because of all the Hawaii flying the 777 does out of there.

Distance doesn’t really matter as much as time. Look up the Google maps averages, they’re not that far apart and MCO-TPA is rarely over 2 hours. EWR-LGA or just normal DC area traffic isn’t much of a peach either.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯. We’ll see tomorrow. I don’t care either way it just seems like they could feasibly cast a wide net down there. If it’s anything like LGA/EWR you’ll be able to pick your poison with the slightest bit of seniority or at least reap some crosstown pay for your trouble.

EWR to LGA is 914 miles (well, it feels that way).

Would love to see the 777 return to LA.

On a side note.....

I think whatever happens will be leaked to "simple flying" an hour prior. Change my mind

Last two times I have been in to MCO we have had 5 FAS.
Guess they have been burned badly after sick calls.
Should be fun
