Short question: with all the marketing campaigns, is there a way for a passanger to be sure he is going to be on one of the new T7s? It's very nice they have two new planes, but unless they always put them on 001 and 008/002, they are not really upgrading their NYC product, they are just giving an occasional nice surprise to their passangers.
I think it's about time LY starts dedicating a/c types to specific flights. In BA,LH,CO (which they compare themselves to) you always know what you get. The only sure routes today are (as far as I can think) MIA with a 762, YYZ with a 76X and HKG+LAX with a 777. NYC,BKK, LHR and CDG keep changing all the time.
