Going over the summer timetable for NW there are a few interesting changes.
One of the LGA flights goes to the A319
One of the saturday MCO flights goes to the A320
One of the MSP flights upgraded to 753 (that should be interesting)
I have no idea how they are going to make that 753 work. In case that number doesn't click right away thats the 757-300 series. That thing is really long. I think the biggest thing prior to this was the 757-200 for NW. I don't know that any airline has provided scheduled service with the 757-300 to IND before. I think ATA used only the 757-200 but I could be wrong.

Well I guess they showed me. The 753 was parked at A2 this morning. I was sure there was no way it would fit.

Well, I'm heading out to Red Lodge, MT. I fly on the 753 MSP-IND on the return trip.

I checked the NW schedules and it looks like they are keeping the 753 on the IND-MSP route until 10/28/06. It appeared to have been originally a summer only flight. Lets see in a few months if they make the 753 permanent. On Oct 28th NW will be running 1 x 753, 1 x A319, 1 x D95 and 2 x D9S to MSP.
