When are you looking? DEN-EWR/IAD don't usually have widebodies in the winter but 767 is a frequent equipment sub on EWR flights. ORD/SFO/IAH and sometimes LAX will see 777s. I haven’t seen a wide body on LAX/SFO-DEN since the pandemic (unless if it was maybe a one-off.) The 12:30 SFO-DEN and early...

How many widebody gates does PHX have at T4 for International use? I think there might just be two that can handle category V aircraft, B23A and B25.
