They don't even know. And accurate is not the word I'd use. 757s seems to disappear and reappear every 6 months. 737 orders are cancelled, then they're not. E190s are the future NB replacement then, oops. The C-series still needs another real order to be viable. 787s still on the books. Used 777s abound for cheap, what ever happened to that one?

Doubt it. That thing is a POS jobs program and not a serious airplane. Its applications for us would be severely limited. A cheap lease deal would only go so far to justify something so otherwise out of the realm like that. I'm not seeing it at any price.

And its only a carrot if we have both ESK and BH protections within each JV.
I really don't see that plane here, but if we did it would probably be for AMS/CDG/LHR feeding, which would spank us hard in that JV. Maybe they'll threaten us with them and we'll have to "pony up" to get them not to get them

ATL-MCO baby!!! Just like the old days! Cheapest seat-cost/air-mile right? Especially if they were almost free. And we own our own refinery! What else could go wrong?

Maybe however it is 10,000 lbs heavier then the current A330 without a increase in gross weight. Airbus is not going to build it with the current order book. Rumor is a mix of CEO A330's and additional A350's if the 330-900 does not get built. Not sure how that ties into Boeing pride.
