We're just about done preparing the first three "ER" 757s for the new transoceanic flights. They will initially be configured in 22 First Class/158 Economy, receiving further upgrades later on down the road. Flights to Europe (initially JFK-SNN) will be sold as all coach (the First seats going to elite customers, etc.). Domestic flights operated by the "ER" will be sold as a two-class service. The first domestic cities to receive them will be MCO (starts Sept. 1st) and LAS (starting later in Sept.).
The first 757-200ER departures on the schedule as of today are three JFK-MCO flights on 9/1/07: DL 1867, DL 1559, and DL 1667. Service to SNN from JFK will remain on the 767-400ER until 9/5/07. On 9/6/07, the equipment will swap to the new "75A" (as it is referred to in our system).
In total, we will end up with 10 ex-TW 757s:
