Has anyone spotted one on an a/c? It's the 6 of February and all 3 flights today feature the January 2016 edition. I did find a few in the PDX BR this morning- but odd they are not onboard...

I was surprised to still see January issues on my flights to and from BOS on 2/4.

Hopefully the Feb's will be on board for my flight tomorrow evening.

Considering January issue was on board ex HNL on 12/28. These are late !

Was going to ask the same question as I didn't see them on my flights yesterday.

Only guess is that they are a little behind with the change of the branding and getting that included for Feb 2016.

I don't know the specifics other than February magazines with the new branding were loaded and then had to be pulled. I believe new magazines will begin to be loaded starting tonight (2/7) though it can take a few days for every airplane to get them.

Feb mags

There was an issue with the Feb mags.
Ones that were put on were pulled shortly after.
New ones arrived this weekend and are being put on now.

Still have January on AS25 BOS-SEA this am. It was a long shot but I was hoping the cleaning crew swapped them out on the turn.

The February issue was on my PDX-SAN flight this morning. Didn't take a look beyond noting that it was the new one, so it's rolling out as the previous post mentioned.

Saw the Feb mag going SEA - OAK on Friday. Funnily enough, going OAK - SEA on Sunday Feb 7, it was the Jan mag.

What was the issue with the February issue? (See what I did there?)

I'm surprised they had January copies to replace the pulled ones.

I wouldn't be surprised if it had to do with the minor "meet our Eskimo/meet the Eskimo" kerfuffle.

Had the January issue on BNA-SEA today. Forgot to check SEA-PDX.
