New 737-800 interior photos
There seemed to be a lack of photos of the new 737-800 interiors and I so happened to be on one today, so took a few photos for you to enjoy.
The IFE is the same as the A380 however the selection is not as vast. There is no traditional controller like on the 747/A380. It is all via the touch screen except for volume, channel, home menu or screen off, where the buttons are located in the seat. There are still games but are simple touch screen games like trivia, hangman, card games etc
There is a flight path, however is different to the one featured on the A380
2 power ports to every 3 seats.
I unfortunately didn't get any in business class however it looks almost identical to the current seats on domestic 737-800 with the screen in the armrest and a more sleek finish.
Enjoy

We have 3 currently flying, and three more will be delivered by Jan 2011.
Some good shots there, I was going to post some pics of the business class seats. I dont find them as comfortable as the millenium seats but they are a lot wider and have a much higher back, but the recline definitely isn't as good.

As for the operational flights - AKL/MEL/SYD is the priority. All AKL-SYD-AKL flights should feature the 800 (non 767) now and AKL-MEL-AKL (QF 25/26/131/134). There will be the odd days though where 800s will find themselves on WLG runs and I would suggest this would more often than not be through MEL and not SYD.

Thanks for that people.
I can't look at eoinnz's images as they are blocked at my work desktop, so I will have to wait until I get home.

A keyboard would serve no purpose. There are no SMS or e-mail capabilities, and even though there is a seat to seat chat function (on screen keyboard) like on the A380, I can't imagine that being used very often.
On such short flights I think simple touch screen navigation is more than adequate. It also means one less thing that could break.
Although I was surprised as first, I now also see that a remote is pointless given that the system is basically just Movies, TV and Music and a few simple games
