Yeah, that’s sorta what I meant. It could beat it by a lot, but it probably will be about the same.
747-400 on SFO-LAX
I’m sorry, but that’s just not the point of the 757.
High demand.
AA uses the 787 and 777 on LAX - DFW and the 777 on PHX - DFW
UA uses the 777 to SFO from LAX (before covid)
Not very practical, so I’m guessing it was a continuation of a trans-Pacific route.
High demand is better served with high frequency smaller aircraft than one large one.
No. It was a daily route
Just like DAL using 763s and 764s constantly flying between LAX and JFK
That’s not the same in any way. LAX-JFK is 5hrs. LAX-SFO is about 1.
There’s also tens of millions of people
that ANA is
Unfortunately the -200 is pretty much dead especially as a passenger aircraft. Now it’s mostly -300s and -400ERs.
I would’ve said the B763 because of Hawaiian but then I realized they’re gonna operate the B789 soon
And the 797 will most likely be a new 762 in terms of capacity and range
The first time a stretched -9 (aka the -10) was in December 2005, the A350 in its current form wasn’t even launched until July 2006
huh…
the -10 was formally launched in 2013 tho
Anyone who voted for the 787: iTs MoDeRn AnD nEw! PlUs ThE rAnGe!
Yes because every plane needs to be able to fly half way around the world because everyone flies that everyday
A350-900ULR bEsT pLaNe EvEr!
Doesn’t beat the 767 when it comes to runway performance.
