The aircraft came from where?
by: unroadwarrior
I was sitting waiting for my flight a few days ago and as I was tracking the incoming aircraft on united.com, I started drilling down on the ‘Where is this aircraft coming from?‘ link. I wanted to see far I could go (10 segments) and see where all had the aircraft been in the last few days. What I found was fascinating. Here it is:

Cool! You’ve got London-LA UA935 on 9/14 in there twice though.

Those took us mid-field to our 777 parked near a taxiway. It was snowing and most of us did not even have jackets on us. I had checked mine in, not expecting to need it till I landed in the US. [...]
