I don't know how they have it with aircrafts, but won't adding more routes mean closing another one or buying another aircraft? Though I believe they have pretty many long-haul charters as well that they maybe are planning to cut down on.?
Hi again, Gnopps,
It is interesting these different configurations. On the JFK & EWR routes there are different planes, some with 2-3-2 configuration, some with 2-2-2. None of the seats seem particularly new, and they have the same video walkman approach to the video entertainment- fine by me even though it's a little more clunky than a stowable screen solution. I like the fact that they serve soup and ice cream, not to mention Plzensky Prazdroj in bottles (a nice touch). Overall, I am way enthusiastic about the quality of the onboard service, but the business class cabins are a little tired looking.
