AKL-LAX will be operated by A330-200s (36J/201Y) 3x weekly from early March. 332s will operate QF25/26 services on TUE/THU/SUN. |

Is that correct that the SYD-BOM will be 30J and the AKL-LAX will be 36J? And both with the same Y seats?
These are already displayed on the GDS seat map availability. |

No. Both Aircraft will be 36J/201Y
These are already displayed on the GDS seat map availability. But EF is still showing A333 with 1 stop to BOM right through to May 08 |

The new 332's have had been built with stronger flooring so they can take the Skybeds.

Just a heads up some international A332 schedules have been loaded for next year the changes so far include:
From FEB1/08 A332s will operate direct SYD-BOM-SYD replacing the one-stop (SYD-DRW-BOM-SYD) A333 service. From FEB/MAR08 A332s will operate 3 weekly QF21/22 services between SYD-NRT-SYD, and a few SYD-PVG-SYD services will also be operated by A332s. This means a mixture of A333/A332s on both these routes. *From MAR08 A333s will operate all SYD-HKG-SYD QF187/188 services replacing the remaining B763s. Schedules are still being updated/corrected. |

MEL-PVG (2 weekly) and MEL-AKL-LAX (3 Weekly)
So that keeps the first 2 x A330-200's busy. Not sure when the other 4 arrive? Perhaps they will be used to replace some more 767 flying as well as ops to PEK? |
