Thread: DL Payload Optimized Flights

Since it's such a quick turn if I don't make that flight I'd be in trouble and would be looking to get home on the Emirates flight from DXB to make sure I get home in time. If that doesn't work I'd be in danger of missing work. There are about 100 open seats on the return so there's at least a little less weight.

Its doable. We ship heavy during the week on that flight mainly Wednesdays so give it a shot. Lots of cars lately..

Yeah my problem is that I'd be leaving Sunday and coming back on that early Wednesday am flight.
