Has the jet departed?!!

Not yet - probably after Chicago ....

ZS-NEX is still in London if you follow flight trackers. I'd guess they might have leased a smaller Swift-air 737 again for this tour.

Chance is big they use another plane. It’s NOT their plane I believe strongly, they just lease as other parties do.

Yep, in the last 5 years the planes were leased/rented from:

Aeronexus - ZS-DJI, ZS-NEX - [iorr.org] , [iorr.org] ,

GainJet - SX-ATF - [iorr.org] ,

Air New Zealand (several) - [iorr.org] ,

Swift Air N802TJ - [iorr.org] ,

Delta Air Lines N650DL - [iorr.org] .

They should hire an airbus A350 this plane greatly reduces the effects of flying on the body versus older aircraft.

Interesting, I had no idea ! I could look it up but maybe you could fill us in on the general improvements ? Would the same apply to a 787/Dreamliner? If it does I didn't notice on my 11 hour flights last summer ;-)

Looks like Mick came alone to New York City on 16-Jun-2019 and the Stones flew separately (maybe Keith was shortly at home in Connecticut?) - [iorr.org] .

According to Flightradar24 it is scheduled to fly LAX-PHL tomorrow: [www.flightradar24.com]

Yes, correct. Let's keep an eye on it

The Delta Airlines B757-200 (N650DL) has the Rolling-Stones-Logo since 23-Jun-2019 - the plane was on the day before in Minneapolis-St. Paul where Delta TechOps has a full-service aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO). The picture was taken on 23-Jun-2019 during the landing on Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD):

Yes both the A350 and the 787 Dreamliner are built from composite materials which allow humidity in the cabin to be increased in a positive way to make it more comfortable and better for the human body.On older aircraft the cabin pressure is kept between the equivalent of 6000 to 8000 feet above sea level but on the A350 and the 787 Dreamliner the cabin pressure is kept at the equivalent of the lower end of that spectrum which means people should feel more comfortable and less tired.There are of course other factors to consider when trying to reduce the effect of jet lag such as length and time of flight and drinking plenty of water and not alcohol will also help considerably.

Some of the crew is already in Toronto.

Probably those who handle the large Displays and the Lighting equipment. The 'Steelworkers' should be there even longer ....

The band's still in Chicago it seems.
