Annoyingly it seems to be an A346 now after having been a 787 all season. It's showing A346 in the app but 787 on the webpage, can anyone confirm?
Also it seems we’re now arriving at TBIT? Is the aircraft then towed to T2?

I believe there has always been an issue with getting the A346’s onto stand at LAX due to their length. An A346 is approximately 12 meters longer than a B789.

The A346 has more seats (308) than the B789 (264) so I would guess VS are using that when there’s more demand.
