Does anyone know if VA can convert their 777 options(6 I think?) to 763s?
If so, and they can get new builds quickly, that may be the way to go.
To me, if they are to be used domestically as well, the 763 model is better than the 332, which will really struggle domestically for DJ, even though it will perform well regionally.
How old would the EK 332s be? Do they maintain their aircraft well as a general rule? I ask mainly in regards to say a 10yo 332, where it could be pretty tired and EK are ready to ditch it.
The tone of the article is very suggestive that any WB introduced next year will be an interim type until 787s arrive.
Dale.
