Per 2017 interim report, only 3 B77W will be expired (their lease contracts) by the end of 2019. CX will not retire so many B77W unless they terminate the lease contracts earlier.

Thanks for the info!

Editors of the sheet: I propose changing naming days of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed, etc.) to numbered days of week (123) etc. Anyone else think this is a good idea? I don't mind to keep as-is if that's the consensus.

I'm in agreement that it's a good idea, and as a fellow editor more than happy to make the change if we get more consensus.

great, let's see if a few more folks agree...if no more feedback let's just start later this day.

Will make it especially useful for the flights that land on Day 1, but depart early morning Day 2 (like Boston, for example...lands late night Day 1, departs early morning Day 2). Right now we have some clumsy and even incorrect boxes due to this. The numbering system will save space and make it cleaner.

How about M-W-FSS style?

That would avoid possible confusion about which day is #1 of the week.

Good point, although what do you normally do for Tuesday and Thursday (T/T) and Saturday and Sunday (S/S)? Problem is a lot of these destinations are just 3-6x weekly could lead to some confusion?

If we still to the #s , presumably we could put a big disclaimer on the front or multiple times saying "1 = Sunday" (or Monday, whatever we choose), so there is no confusion?

You put a dash for every day it does not operate.

dkc192 Oct 23, 2017 10:32 pm

I went ahead and made the changes, following the 146 x257 etc. style. I left a note up top describing how this numbering convention works.

Happy to switch it to 1--4-6- or M--R-S- style (with alphabets I tend to use T/R for Tuesday/Thursday and S/U for Saturday/Sunday) if that's more popular, but what we have now is a start.

i'll go with whatever you guys decide. either is an improvement. pls be aware, i've noticed a few are technically incorrect when they have different arrival / departure days (due to presence of midnight in between)

Yep, I cleaned up (hopefully most of) these discrepancies and also updated some info with the latest schedule changes, etc.

I think this is clear enough.

Admin, LRU (CX A359) is delivered, please update.

TomYoung Oct 27, 2017 7:39 am

You might also look at the notes for A359 flights to BCN and TVL. They dn't seem to reflect the announced developments in 2018
