I'm not sure if I see Qantas spending the $$$ and time to upgrade the 763's. Aren't they due to be removed over the next little while and replaced?
It seems all goes in terms of throwing money at the existing fleet. The A330's didn't work domestically so they change them into International configurations complete with skybed and avod. They turn 747's into 2-class then think they've gone too far and change some back to 3-class. I know the airline industry is very "fluid" but I wonder sometimes what they are drinking with all these swaps and changes.
