In your defense, TS does operate A330-300s, where AF has only A330-200s, so you may have been right in this regard.

The only AF A-320 service in North America is operated between Miami and Port-au-Prince, Haïti (PAP), then continuing on to Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe (PTP), Fort-de-France, Martinique (FDF), and Cayenne, Guiane Française (CAY) as flight AF 3747.

Another way to tell between A319/320/321 and A330:

A319/320/321 have dual-wingtips (i.e. the wing-tips are above and below the wing-surface)

A330 only have wing-tips that point 'up', although they point 'up' and 'away' from the fuselage.

Play around on www.airliners.net, fromYYZ_flyer

Thought you were Airmiles GOLD, from_yyzflyer. If you can afford to buy enough gas, groceries, flowers and pharmaceuticals to get Airmiles GOLD, then I'm sure you can afford a couple of books http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Assuming you are refering to Air France - I was on an AC flight EWR-YYZ a few months back and was surprised to see taht the seats on board were not the typical AC seats. I asked a flight attendant and he explained that AC had "wanted a plane in a hurry" and AF was trying to push off or cancel (I don't remember which one he said) an order, so AC took their plane. They had "enough time" to paint the outside but had not yet changed the seats.

(Now, I hope your "AF" meant AirFrance, or I'm gonna feel really stupid.)

Andrew Yiu May 11, 2003 10:41 pm

Yeah - he was referring to Air France.

AC does have a couple of A321s that came from AF, they've been in the fleet for a while. I believe they are FIN465-467. They have shorter range than the other AC A321s so you'll usually find them on short haul routes.
