How many airliners currently operate mixed or combined passanger-freighter configured aircraft in scheduled services? I know IB used to operate such aircraft as I was on a 747 mixed pax-freigher on a MAD-JFK flight in December 1985. I believe AS operates some combis to serve smaller locations for example. I know Boeing made a small number of combi 747's and possibly other models. Any more info out there?

Not exactly what you were asking for, but UK budget airline Jet2 have 8 Boeing 737-300QC ('Quick Change') in their fleet that operate passenger flights in the daytime and freight flights for Royal Mail overnight.

Quoting 71Zulu (Reply 3): Combi's:
Alaska (737-400)
Canadian North (737-200, Dash 8)
First Air (727-200, 737-200, HS-748, ATR-42-300)
Also Air Inuit. Most, if not all, of the 732C combis in Canada have the gravel kit for operation on gravel runways. You can see the nose gear gravel deflector and bleed air nozzles below the engine intakes on the Air Inuit 732C below (and the Xstrata 732C in other photo).
