Also, I remember reading that the above schedule applies only for about a month - does this 787 get deployed on an intercontinental route after that?
Well they should have 5 787's in December, so we should see international routes start next month from another hub. They already have more than one 787. They do have alot of down time built into the schedule since this is really still operational route proving.


If you want tons of info on the 787's go to this website under their forum area:

www.airliners.net

Those geeks will fill you in with more information then you ever dreamed you needed!!!
