Remaining 747 routes are: daily JFK (3 combi+4 pax), daily LAX (4 combi+3 pax), 4/w MNL (pax), 3/w PEK (pax), 4/w PVG (combi), 2/w NRT (combi), and 1/w HKG (combi). Remaining widebodies (777/330) are gonna be really busy this summer to fill up others.
Please educate me. What do you mean when you write "LAX (4 combi + 3 pax)"? I thought the "dark bird" is a combi? Also, if a ICN-HKG route was previously served by a 747, the "dark bird" is out of the equation as well?
