- 16x BA195 LHR-IAH
- 15x BA281 LHR-LAX
- 12x BA43 LHR-CPT
- 7x BA283 LHR-LAX
- 7x BA297 LHR-ORD
- 5x BA295 LHR-ORD
- 5x BA67 LHR-PHL
- other odds and sods such as IAD, SFO & BOS
- In April, the number will go down to 11 flights, of which 9 on BA295 to ORD
I can't tell which the specific days without going into each single route, apologies. The next 77W to go through refurbishment is due on 31/03, and all will be retrofitted by August (that's the plan; as usual, a bit like it happens when you refurbish your upstairs bathroom, once you "rip it up" you might find unexpected 'treasures' like corrosion or other issues. That might slow things down.
This is really good info, thanks!
Does it mean more than one aircraft is likely to be refurbished at once - only 11 flights in April would suggest that?
