Yep
Charcoal bottoms and red back rest (fabric). Black leather head rest |

The bottom seat covers may change again in the near future as they hold a lot of food crumbs and other dirt and are difficult to clean. Not much thought went into that design.

Any chance that those in the know can maintain an up-to-date listing of what is completed ? Something along the same lines as I have seen for VA names ! ! !
Really grateful if this could happen - makes it easier to track status as opposed to trawling through an increasingly large number of posts. Thanks in advance to those that have the knowledge and can share it. |

Why is the A333 refurb taking a month longer than the A332??? I thought it might be that they were having repaints concurrently (i.e. refurb in BNE then fly to SIN for repaint or vice versa) but they were both back in service for a while after their repaints before being refurbed...

QPB hasn't flown in service in new livery yet. The 300s would be taking longer as they are getting the full fit out with new economy seats as well as the J suites

Also the 300's are having a C Check done at the same time.

Some of the A333s are due for their heavy checks (C8 I believe) and this is probably being done concurrently with the refit since the aircraft have to be stripped down inside. No idea why QPD hasn't gone into the hangar yet -- probably space or staff constraints at the moment at BNE or it might not be quite due for its heavy check yet. The schedule for the repainting is probably constrained by the availability of the paint shop in SIN and so may not directly correlate with when the aircraft are due to get their checks and refit at BNE.
