Given Oman Air is having financial difficulties and withdrew its entire A330 fleet, will it still receive those new 787s being built?
Jump to postThink of all the young B77W’s being scrapped as a result… It makes me wonder if we’ll ever see 25+ year old B77W’s flying with their original airlines. Probably BA, AA, AC, UA, and maybe (at a stretch) AF/KL if the currently active B772’s are anything to go by. B77W F-GSQA currently active with AF ...

Why?
This is just speculation that Qatar Airways is due to place a big plane order. Let us see the facts below: - Qatar Airways has 30 787-8s, the oldest which is almost 11 years old. It also has 30 787-9 on order, which they have received 11 so far. - It operates over 54 A350s which the oldest which is...
Jump to postI'm really surprised that EK still operates 2-3-2 in Business and people actually spending thousands of dollars on these seats!
EK first class though is a game changer for all. I would spend my money there.
I sincerely doubt that. Pre-blockade there was basically an air bridge between the two and DXB at the moment runs an ‘the more airlines and frequencies across the board’ policy. I really think there are stipulations made by the Qatari government to block EK’s access until they’ve paid their dues. I...

Jump to postQR ordered the 747 back when the blockade was in full effect to help with cargo. But, I think it is not needed anymore or could be substituted with other planes. Although I remember, they needed the 747 due to specific bulk sized items that cannot fit in a normal 777 cargo.
