Where These Numbers Come From
Every route in these tables is checked against the schedule snapshot behind our route pages, so a route appears only if the airline flies it; distance and flight time are the same estimates those pages use. The evidence column says how we know first class is on it: "Desk library" is Biirdee's own carrier and aircraft reference, updated September 2026; "Ticketed by Biirdee" means our desk has issued first class tickets on that airline there between November 2024 and September 2026; "Award scan" means our award scanners have seen first class seats released on it; "Fare scan" means our fare scans have priced a first class fare on the nonstop. Data as of 23 September 2026.
A flight counts for Dallas/Fort Worth when one end is Dallas/Fort Worth and at least one of those sources shows first class on it; fifth-freedom sectors count for the US city they serve. Fares are median published round-trip fares per person from our 2026 fare scans. Award prices are what our scanners recorded, not chart rates. For every other US city, see which US cities have international first class.
