HND is more reliable for long haul equipment except all the rumors say the 744 will be retired by the time you fly.
So even though CX wants to fly long haul equipment on that, do they have the extra plane to rotate for a HND turn.
Did the photos help at the very least?
Yes, thank you for the photos. I love the new A330-300 but , gosh, not sure what will happen in the future.
So if the 747 will be retired, wouldn't CX substitute for another aircraft or just cancel the flight alltogether? And if it will be cancelled, would I be placed on the NRT route even if on an awards ticket from UA?
When I booked for my sister on ANA 10 months ago, it was on an old aircraft. She is leaving this coming week and ANA changed it to the new 787 for her.
