The fuel savings have a lot more to do with accuracy and planning flexibility than crusie speed.
Maybe they are keeping the worldflight contract to leverage AWABS/WDR to improve their product?
Don't think for a second that the only ones who will be trained on something new will be fNW if there are significant cost savings and revenue enhancement involved.
