And side note. Just saw this little nugget over on Twitter

Until yesterday JA08 was displayed as ' F-WZFZ', but today it's displayed as JA08WJ on Flightradar. I still reckon it's a coin toss between delivered on contract and JA08 making it's way to HND, or being ferried to CHR and parked next to JA07. Hopefully it's fate will be known later this week.

I have a feeling JA08 will join JA07 at CHR. I think seat delay seems most likely… if it was an issue with the aircraft that needed further testing/repair, it would have stayed at TLS. The only way I can see JA08 beating JA07 is if Safron has delivered one set of seats and rather than ferry JA07 back to install and then ferry JA08 to CHR to wait for the next, they could just put them on JA08? It would mean less moving around of aircraft, but I don’t know if they would do them out of sequence.
