Wounder if JAL will respond, if not with a 744 with a 77W?

That's a long layover in NRT nearly a whole day for QF21

The route is catered for business flyers. Have a full day's work in Tokyo (or a full day to arrive from elsewhere in North Asia) and then fly home in biz bed. If it was a day flight, I would expect biz wouldn't sell too well.
Nope. Yesterday JAL said it will not be making any changes to its Australian service, both at SYD and BNE. If anything, the going thought was JAL might reduce or pull out of Australia. I wonder, however, if the change is more driven by a want to use the more agile A330-300 elsewhere on the network and Qantas knows it can easily fill more leisure seats (Joyce said the demand was from VFR traffic). Anyone know any plans for the A333? |

My productivity the next day in AUS isn't fantastic, as I don't sleep well on planes. I'd much rather finish my day in the office, catch a JR train in the late evening to Narita, and stay in a hotel near the airport. I can then work on the plane during the day if I needed to. I know I'm probably in the minority, but if a day flight existed, I would support it.

Perhaps a shuffle around with a 332 so a 332 can ops AKL-LAX?

I thought Qantas was to use 330 on PER-NRT and BNE,SYD-MNL and retiring the 763's so maybe thats where the 330 comes from to do it.

Would be great to get the 333 back on the PER-NRT route. The 767 is a good old workhorse just cant cut it for a 10 hour sector in why.
