Sources are always nice to have Last winter I was told from my TG insider that TG wanted to keep the 7442 config because they are making good money on CPH and ARN with the extra "premium" seats. Yield is quite high on these routes and Scandinavians apparently like the C, PE and Y concept just as much as they love Thailand.

Situation on ARN and CPH might have changed after opening to OSL so it will be interesting to see what happens. However, I dont see TG spending any money on refurbishing the 7442 any time soon with the present economic climate.
