Hello All -Pretty quick question. Are any of the 800/900 series used for "long hauls" (i.e. KLAX-PHNL)? If so, what air carriers are currently using this fleet for trans-pacific routes? I didn't know if this was againts the ETOPS certification for the aircraft.If i'm asking the question incorrectly lemme know! :-)Thanks!

Alaska Airlines flys nonstop KPDX (Portland Oregon) to KJFK with thier 900's

aloha fly phnl to ksfo I believerich

Alaska or Aloha flies the winglet 900 from ksfo to phnl. I tried to with the 800, and was in pattern with yellow fuel. No go arounds for me.

Aloha from SNA to PHNLAmerican for LAX to BOSDon Bohr

Aloha does the 700 on the KSNA-PHNL flight though dont they? Since the 700's have a longer range than the 800/900

Air Pacific do Nadi - Honolulu - Vancouver in the -800WL

Absolutely correct. I should make sure that my brain is in gear before engaging my typing fingers.Don

Thanks a ton !

Also, if you're into North Atlantic routes and are familiar (or want to learn about) with the NAT tracks, PrivatAir (a Lufthansa subsidary I think) fly across the 'pond' with 737-BBJ's (700 series) and A320's. Not sure on their routes, but if you'd like more info - I'm sure I can dig it up.

Aloha also does PHNL to KOAK
