Re: A350 Production And Delivery Thread Part 17

Delta 359 is stunning. Also they will be the first US carrier to give it's PAX that Delta service on the 359. Best plane and Airline in their relevant class/country.

Re: Aer Lingus @ BDL

JFK-BDL to get a 763 out of there was a lovely flight replacing the J-41. Many times there were so few of us that we all just sat in Biz. Flights up to BDL were very quick, coming down to JFK took longer because of the holds. Happy Days.

Re: Cathay Pacific schedules final A340 service

I have flown on the CX 342 (lsd) and 343 (own). From a pax point of view Airbus really brought about the quiet relaxing LH flight era with the 342/343. I managed to fly on LH and CX 343 in 2016, all wonderful flights on a nice relaxing plane. It will be missed by this traveller.

Re: Cathay Pacific didnt serve Europe till 1980?
