Default JQ A321's

Has anyone heard any info on the Jetstar A321's?
I heard a rumor that a brand new 321 is headed our way very soon?
Anyone with more info?

Most of the new A321s will be fitted with a centre fuel tank.

Apparently they will replace the A320s on the Asia services. CGK, DPS, SIN, SGN etc.

Would be great if they put some STAR class on those birds as well.

I hope that Jetstar put StarClass back on the SGN Route!

Has anyone seen VWY or gotten a snap of her in the 'full' JQ livery?

I do believe this machine was also being containerized and getting a centre fuel tank installed, so maybe shes not flying again yet?

VH-VWZ received an interior revamp a few weeks ago actually. The floors were stripped and new carpet laid that matches the rest of the fleet, and the seats were given a grey leather covering, but they are still the same shape/size/cushioning as how they were received from Spirit - not the exact same model of seat that is found on all the 320s. Having said that, it's a big improvement to the interior look of the cabin - instantly more modern.

I'm not sure if -VWY's interior has been revamped as well as I've only operated on -VWZ in the last few weeks. But the repaint looks great and actually the correct silver that it should be - unlike the more goldy coloured silver on -VWZ.
