CO uses it's B757s to a large number of Trans-Atlantic routes (to MAN, EDI, BHX, AMS this summer...)
AA uses some of them during the summer to Europe for extra routes or capacity.

(I think Skyservice Airlines is planning this summer a Toronto-London route using B757 correct me if I am wrong)
I am asking this because I reckon the B757 to be a solid candidate for thin-flow medium to long haul business routes that so many smaller operators are cherishing.
Snba wake up !

Don't forget that the B757 and the carrier need to be certified with an ETOPS of 120 minutes to fly Bru-Mia. The RR and PW engines ar certified. Whit type of engine is AA flying?

Well AA is flying both, thanks to the TWA take-over, AA is the world's only airline wich operates B757-200's with both engines...

Yes, but you can't compare a BOS/JFK/EWR-EDI/MAN/BHX route tou a MIA-BRU route IMHO.
AMS is in the summerseason served by the B762 and the B764 (EWR and IAH) I think.

Continental operates sometimes a B752 to EDI (don't know if it's scheduled or not)
American operates sometimes a B752 to MAN (again: don't know if it's scheduled or not).

Be aware, more routes are served with the B752; Glasgow and Shannon are two of them I think.

Range of the B752 is 3900 nm with maximum passengerload (as displayed on the Boeing-site). Distance MIA-BRU is 4035 nm.

Let's hope.

EDIT: corrected the range of the B752
