They were originally bought for YYZ-HGK, but who knows things have changed. Also looking at the Promotions on YYZ-HKG, the route sucks at the moment 
I was told the 346 were cancelled. Anyone know for sure?</font>
According to the Airbus site AC has 13 A340 series aircraft ordered, 8 delivered and 9 operational. I assume the difference between the delivered and operational to be a leased a/c. The stats were last updated on Jan 31/04. At least from Airbus' view AC still has 4 on order. The spreadsheet does not differentiate on the different models within the series so it won't confirm whether the 600's are on order
The link to the spreadsheet is:
