BA FLEET: NEW AIRCRAFT ARRIVALS AND RETIREMENTS WIKI

BA are in the mid-stages of a large fleet renewal programme. The new aircraft enabled BA to retire the 767 and 737 Classic fleets with retirement of the 747 fleet and selected 777/A319 aircraft currently in progress.

This Wiki has been divided into:
  • Projected Fleet
  • New Arrivals
  • Retrofits
  • Retirements
  • Historical Fleet

(Click on the aircraft type, where there is a link, to go to the relevant details in this wikipost.)

Retirement

With all the new arrivals there are also some much loved/hated (*delete as applicable) older aircraft heading for scrapping. Until 2015 most of these ended up in Victorville (VCV) in California for storage and ultimately part out for scrap. Since then most ex-BA planes have been sent to St Athan (DGX) in Wales for scrapping. Recent 747 retirements have been to Kemble (GBA) in England for scrapping.

Boeing 747-400: As of 27 April 2020, 29 747-400s have been retired from the original fleet of 57, leaving 30 aircraft in service. Of those remaining, 17 are "super high-J" aircraft (14F / 86J / 30W / 145Y). (Cabin refresh dates here). The remaining 11 aircraft are "mid-J" aircraft. (14F / 52J / 36W / 235Y). (Cabin refresh dates here). All remaining aircraft have been refurbished.

The current plan is for all aircraft to be retired by February 2024. According to the Capital Markets Day presentation in November 2019, BA plan to have the following amount of 747s in the fleet at year end:
  • 2020: 25 aircraft
  • 2021: 20 aircraft
  • 2022: 12 aircraft
  • 2023: 3 aircraft
A list of retired 747-400s as of May 2019 is archived here.

Since then the following have been retired:

G-BNLN - Retired to DGX on 24 Jun 2019
G-CIVG - Retired to DGX on 25 Nov 2019

• B767 NWS & B747 NLJ will potentially fly on for longer than originally planned, to mid S16 and mid S18 respectively.

• A320 ATO will no longer be joining the BA fleet, the lease proposal has been cancelled.

•B787–9 updated planned delivery dates added.

GATO

Why did this lease get cancelled? Was it an airframe problem or did BA re-assess their fleet requirement?

It may be obvious to others but yet another reason why BA has been buying returbished aircraft makes sense now. Airbus has a 5000+ single aisle aircraft backlog and similarly Boeing has a 7 year backlog. While some of those orders could of course be postponed or delayed, it certainly makes it difficult for BA to expand their fleet now unless they want to order more A380s

If a re-engined option comes out, who knows? I would still like to see a large 747-8i order to continue 747s in BA service for the next 20 years or so.

Unless there's enough demand for cargo, I assume the 77X and 350-1000 are close enough in size and cheaper to operate. The 747-8i does have a benefit of being cheaper per seat than the A380, and having far more cargo capacity, but that doesn't seem to be enough. While Boeing could offer BA a bargain on the 747-8i, I assume they feel it would just take away sales from the 77X? It seems like Boeing lost the battle by making the 777 and 77X too efficient, and by not doing enough to make the 777-8i more revolutionary to further improve the economics and fuel efficiency.

I can actually see BA using up some of the options they hold on the A380, it seems fairly certain that there is a place in the fleet for the big bird and certainly until R3 is built it would seem a fairly certain way of adding capacity to existing routes and keeping new slots for new routes.

BA currently have orders for 12 A380s, with 7 options, I don't think its too far fetched to think that they could actually operate 19-20 A380s.

As for delivery slots, yes new ordered Boeing and Airbus aircraft have long order to delivery times, however if an airline wanted to get hold of an aircraft quite a few orders are held by leasing companies with the actual delivery options of the aircraft to be determined nearer the time.

I agree with you. However, I often wonder what BA will use to replace the 747s with when they eventually leave the fleet, and how BA will expand until a dithering government builds a third runway at Heathrow.

The 777x has not been built yet but both variants of it have fewer seats than the 747-8i. It is also planned to enter service with the launch customer in 2020 at the earliest (I predict a delay with it), and BA will likely see it enter service 3-5 years after the launch customer does.

With the 747s retiring, no new 773s on order, and the A350-1000 have less capacity than the 744, I cannot see a way for BA to expand with smaller aircraft from a capacity-constrained airport. Yes, people like frequency which smaller, more fuel efficient aircraft allow, but the options for an increase in frequency from Heathrow are not there without cutting routes to other places to free up slots. BAs fleet is already being used to its maximum, evident by a 747 retirement plan that is continually being altered, and the 777 recently being lost makes things more difficult.

Come 2022-2023 on the JFK routes, BA will be using inefficient 747s in a time of increasing fuel prices as there are no larger aircraft or aircraft of similar size but more fuel efficient in its fleet (assuming the 773s are occupied somewhere else). This is why I see the 748 as a good choice. It is a slight increase on capacity to a level below the A380, can enter service very quickly, and offers an improvement on operating costs. Boeing will also be happy to offering them cheap just to start shifting them. Plus, wouldn't it be nice to see a 747 in BA colours for decade to come?

If I was in a position of making decisions on the fleet, I would speed up the retirement of the older 747s, replace them with 748s (would be nice to see RR engines but there we go), transfer several 777s to Gatwick, and be open to more A380s if there was a -neo or -900 version. I cannot find the source but I remember reading something stating a 15% increase in capacity does not equal a 15% increase in operating costs. If this is true the improved A380 will offer a nice revenue stream if those extra seats can be filled; highly likely in my opinion on those high density routes.

The more A380s will be ordered before the 748 for the following reasons

1. More efficient aircraft.
2. They already have the A380 in the fleet, for obvious reasons this is a plus.
3. Empty A380 delivery slots are coming up so they can get them fairly quickly.

I went on a BA A388 for the first time this week and I have to say I love the 744 but the A388 is miles ahead. Much nicer in all cabins apart from J (dorm) but F on the A388 is lightyears ahead! So is Y and W.

I think once the 744 are gone we could see quite a few more than 20.. Just need T7 to get some A388 capable stands.

I think once the 744 are gone we could see quite a few more than 20.. Just need T7 to get some A388 capable stands.
Are BA staying in T7 for definite? I remember two years ago there was discussion about BA moving in with American Airlines in T8.

Axlegeeks puts the 748 at be $12 per mile cheaper when compared to the A380. However, this does not deal with the A380s limited cargo ability when passenger bags are loaded, and the potential to not be able to fill up the seats.

Do you have a prediction for when BA might be exploiting their options?

Not exactly a credible source.

Why is the A380 much more successful than the 747-8? LH have publicly announced they are dumping the 747-8 ahead of schedule.

BA getting the 747-8 is just a dream

Yep, it's confirmed that they are staying in T7 and the refit is starting around new year but JFK has some other issues come up over the last few months.
