Delta's last 777 flight
Today Saturday October 31st 2020, marks the last scheduled passenger flight for yet another Delta Aircraft.

N701DN was built in 2008. Even though Delta doesn't want it anymore, some other airline might.

(Unless Airbus could deliver the A350s before US gov finally get the pandemic in control...)
