The A330 NEO is still a paper airplane and will not be available until after the 350. The NEO can't meet the range requirements for some routes we need. Don't be surprised to see this order end up being cut down in size and a follow up for the NEO later.Originally Posted by flyallnite
I don't know what happened to the 330NEO they told Airbus to build. Recent comments from RA indicate it's down to the 787 and A350. I'm sure they are looking very closely at the performance of the 787-900 that VA is flying to ATL, no coincidence I'm sure... you know guys with DAL I.D.'s and khakis are probably all over that thing every time it lands-- looking at MX, fuel burn, pax and ground handling issues. I'd be very surprised if an order doesn't come in the next 3 weeks.
