Just curious --
Since the industrial actions are going on, why not take advantage of the aircraft's down time now and reconfigure them?

I saw a couple CX's A340s around the maintenance base the other day in HKG... including B-HXN (the latest A340).

I don't see any new A330 configuration on the timetable... hopefully they will have it on the fall timetable.

i guess the problem is the industrial action is 'guerilla warfare', not a 'strike'. the pilots made it unpredictable, so that you only know 2 hours prior to take off.

the whole purpose is to destroy value for cx. -- don't ask me why they think this makes sense
