VH-VWZ has disappeared off the MEL - OOL Route since saturday which normally it would be VWY then VWZ on a rotation each day. So maybe a paint job with the correct silver is in place? .

But apparently VWY got a ULD installed so maybe this is what is going to happen to VWZ?


Ill keep you's updated

Cheers Matt

Fair enough. You might've liked the look of the blue carpet with the blue Spirit seats, but it would look strange if the blue carpet had remained with the grey leather seats. I think the grey has a cleaner look about it.

Both A321s are getting the loading system fitted to match the A320s plus both are getting cabin upgrades.

The brand new A321s which begin arriving mid year will also be fitted with a centre fuel tank plus the new airbus interior. (Similar to that found on most recent A320 a/c)

I really like the new Airbus interior, especailly the overhead Smoking/Seatbelt sign and Air Vents

Worst thing which isnt airbus' fault is its hard to see the row numbers.
But that's minor

Nice photo Lukas. And yeah the interior of the new Jetstar A320s (-VQC/D/E/F) are the same, obviously just with the grey leather seats, the orange strip along the overhead locker handrail, and the orange fwd and aft bulkheads.

The newies do look much softer and sleeker inside, really clean lines. It's actually modelled almost exactly on the A330 interior - has the same design PSU's which are seatbelt/no smoking signs, the air vents, reading lights and call-bell buttons/lights - and the side walls around the passenger windows are the same as 330, very flush. Cabin lighting is slightly more dim than all our other 320s, and still has the pure-white light that modern Airbuses have instead of the more yellowey/pearl light on Boeing aircraft.

Much less creaking, rattling and vibration on the new ones as well, as you'd expect.
