Interesting, especially since they've just added HKG back to their network. Maybe we will see a new destination (there have always been talks about South Africa or Mexico-City) instead and besides the additional flights to NYC, ORD and PEK.

Jump to postLooking at Eurowings schedule i January, I notice several flight TXL to the Nordicas to be operated by 737-800. Does this mean they plan to take over the Air Berlin TUI aircraft?

Jump to postCan we expect a 737MAX order for AF-KLM or are there plans to switch to an all A320neo fleet? I can hardly believe that they will maintain two different single aisle fleets or that AF will switch to an 737 fleet as they've ordered all most every single Airbus type yet.
