PDX-AMS upgauged to A333 and goes daily for fall/winter 2012

Starting June 16, 2012, daily A333 operates for summer months, up from A332 in summer 2011.

Back down to A332 equipment October 1 and ups to daily operations through fall/winter months(Fall/Winter 2011/2012 was 5x/week 763).

Awesome.

Its surprising how much capacity has grown from the Northwest region to AMS in recent years.

Compare:

Summer 2012
SEA-AMS: 2x daily: 1x 763, 1 x A333
PDX-AMS: 1x daily: 1x A333
YVR-AMS: 1x daily KLM 777
YYC-AMS: 1x daily KLM A332

Summer 2006
SEA-AMS: 1x daily A332
YVR-AMS: 1x daily KLM

With such growth, could we see the talked about Delta PDX-CDG service come online soon?

It's an old, tired 767 currently...and killing me. I'll be back aboard it Friday.

And I should probably put some binoculars in my carry-on so that I'll be able to see the video monitors, and maybe some duct tape to MacGyver the audio that never seems to work properly.

I like the summer season on that flight much better!

Please don't tell me it's the same one they're going to use for SEA CDG when AF pulls out.

Unfortunately it appears that way.

PDX-AMS goes to A332 from 767 on March 25 as Delta starts 767 SEA-CDG around the same day.
