Alaska Airlines completed repainting #N780HA, the 2nd of 5 #Alaska787 planes in Aurora Borealis livery. It flew from Fort Worth Meacham Field #KFTW to Seattle #KSEA this morning to re-enter service. It took 3 weeks for repainting. The next ones may take less time - filed and canceled flight plans looked like they wanted to get it out before last weekend's ice storm. At the same time, next plane in line #N781HA flew from SEA to FTW for repainting. https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/N781HA/history/20260129/0925Z/KSEA/KFTW #aviation #travel #avgeek
