Also, the 5th 339 performed its maiden test flight @TLS on 11/7 and the 14th 359 rolled out of FAL last week.

Weekly updates will resume next week

thanks

DL1 JFK-LHR will be operated by N831MH the second refurbished 767-400ER this evening, 11/16.

Yep, and looking at the schedule this week it looks like DL001 will be the 764 every day. I know there was a lot of talk on here about delays for EIS of the modded aircraft, and that folks were expecting EIS on ATL-LHR. It looks like this JFK trip is where the scheduled EIS took place.

By the way I flew in D1 on 1802 on one of its last flights before the mods. It was looking absolutely tired, with dirt and grime mashed into the widget on the tray table, and with the IFE really unresponsive. This refurbishment program is much needed.

Does anyone know why 777-200ER N864DA is going back and forth between ATL and LHR, as 9900s numbered flights.

its working the VS 104/103 segments. Probably some issue with the VS fleet and metal neutral JV partner is stepping in.

So, they’re not some ferry/repositioning flights? They’re carrying passengers?

But the retrofitted N831MH operating JFK-LHR was a 'one-off' only for the 16 and 17 Nov (it went JFK-LHR on 16 Nov and then LHR-JFK on 17 Nov and has since been sitting at JFK). The EIS for the first three routes with the retrofitted 764s have all been delayed:

DL30 ATL-LHR originally scheduled Nov 12 has been delayed till Nov 20
DL1 JFK-LHR originally scheduled Nov 16 did start on Nov 16 but then reverted to the old 764 for about a week; it will only start on a continuous basis on Nov 23
DL58 BOS-LHR originally scheduled Nov 20 has been delayed till Dec 3

Good info panamair and thanks so much for the clarification. The DL website and app are so clunky to tab through for the configuration that I (wrongly) assumed that once I saw the 764 listed that it was always the new configuration.

Why does DL have so many spares in the schedule? Are they out of service due to a reduced schedule? Are they intended to serve as backup for other widebody aircraft in service?

DL's winter widebody schedule requires ~25 less frames than its summer schedule. Hence the slack in usage. Some of these frames go through scheduled heavy checks, some cabin upgrades, some winter storage and the rest are just floating around the network with the average frame utilization rate substantially down during winter.

Yep - and on a net, fleet-wide basis, the US legacy airline business has always been heavily seasonal. Now that all three of the large international carriers have a business in the Pacific, the Atlantic, and Latin America, they are better able to balance the peaks and valleys than they used to be. But given the slowdowns from the US to Europe and the Mediterranean - and in US domestic - in the deep winter months, there is no other option than to shrink the operation. Brazil and Argentina can only soak up so much demand in January when most of the East-West operation is a ghost town. Three decades ago it was much worse for some airlines, as a carrier such as TWA had all those 747s an nowhere to use them when the Greece, Italy, and Spain markets dropped off in the winter.

Today, the airlines are pretty good at burning off flight attendant and pilot vacation liability in they winter while they send the heavies through the heavy maintenance and mod cycle.

I’m curious to see what thanksgiving upgrades we will see over the next week.

Any updates from people in the know on MSP-PVG? I had thought it was supposed to launch spring 2020 if slots were available, and with AA returning some slots I think they are available. And they will have the airplanes, especially as the 14th A350 is already out on the flightline and another one is going into the production process. I would assume we would need an announcement fairly soon, though, if it is going to launch in the spring.

Does the 764 not have the range to do ATL-NRT empty?

I saw N840MH today at ATL. I had a layover before my flight home and when we departed I got a,”kind of” good picture. Did it get retrofitted?
I’ll send it once I download it to my computer

Not yet

I wonder how 764 mods take almost 2.5 months whereas 777 mods are completed in just a month, despite the 777 being much larger (not to mention that the Suites must be installed).

It's not just changing out the seats, the 764s are going through a heavier check than their 777 counterparts.

Then what was N840MH doing at ATL? It has been there since Nov 30th.

When is the next scheduled 767 retirement?

The 12/15: MSP-AMS -> KEF diversion was technical. Some kind of electrical problem that caused electrical fumes (crew didn't offer details). I was on the flight. ~3 hours on the ground in KEF, then continued on to AMS after problem was fixed and plane refueled.

Not until W20-21 by the looks of it as the oldest 76Ls are getting life extension programs this Winter at VQQ.

What about N183DN and N185DN, the two newest 76Ls that were supposed to be converted to 76Zs? Have they been converted, or are those plans cancelled?

In other news, N710DN will exit SIN mods tomorrow morning.

They will more than likely be converted when the 76Z refresh begins in a couple of weeks.

What is the delivery schedule for Delta's 330Neo?

Just a thought, but is it wise to list MILITARY charters in this open forum? No one really needs to know about troop movements, even if it is after the fact.

Can you make an updated list of the DL 777's that have been modded? How much are done and how much to go?

N709DN is the only remaining 77L commercially flying without mods and it will go in for mods first week of Jan so the days of non-modded 777 flights are almost over.

They are publicly available. If the government did not intend them to be public, they wouldn't be.

There were two MSP-AMS flights on 12/15 which diverted to KEF for medical? yikes!

Gosh. People are so uptight, it's no wonder that we constantly have to deal with cancel culture and the PC police. This information is publicly available and the flights occurred in the past and have already been completed. Is someone going to travel back in time to disrupt or cause harm to these flights?
