retrofits will only happen once there is enough feedback on how the new interiors are behaving. No fixed timescales.
The BMI 319s were meant to be starting soon-ish, but as always there are shortages of space, manpower and downtime. I really cannot stress enough how much of a nether regions-ache it is to have a (underfunded) CAA uncoupled from EASA. I know governments of all colours don’t give a monkey’s about aviation, but rejoining EASA ought to be a no brainer.
