On PMUA Aircraft like the A319/320 the galley carts (at least in First where I was sitting) have a label printed on them CA777 or LW777. Does anyone here know what that label signifies.
It is odd that it would be strictly for 777 Aircraft because as I understand things galley carts are for the most part interchangeable.
The label refers to dimensions of the cart. While width is standard, I believe the difference between the 727/777 designations (not aircraft-specific) is the length of the cart. I recall even seeing '707' carts in the past.
'CA' are catering carts (bar/meal), 'LW' are trash carts.
