Aside from the fact that I'm no fan of A340s, I wouldnt be surprised at all if CX terminates their acquisition of these aircraft... what need do they have for them? An NYC nonstop that they've never been all too serious about implimenting for one reason or the next (three attempts and no results is somewhat pathetic)? Are the restrictions imposed on 744As flying HKG-LAX great enough to warrant a subfleet of 3 aircraft?

A340s don't fly... they're repelled from Earth by their ugliness!
