The article mentions revenue flights won't begin until the Q2. What could be taking just over two months to commence commercial flying besides the acceptance check? Is it still the FAA certification of the J Class seats?

According to All Things 787, American's next three Dreamliners, N801AC, N802AN, and N803AL, are all undergoing Pre-Flight Prep and should be delivered to American before the end of March. Not sure what all this means, but shouldn't international service begin sometime this summer? Wouldn't the certification of N800AN accelerate the service entrance of the next three air frames?
