March 12, 201313 yr I read an article in the New York Times that Boeing is going ahead with plans for 2 new 777's to be delivered by 2019 and 2021. The 2019 delivery will be a 400+ seater 777 with new engines and more composites and a slightly different wing, and the 2021 delivery a 350 seater 777 with new engine and more composites.<br />Should be interesting, they are going to the board early next month for approval and Emirates has expressed great interest already. If this goes through its gonna be a big cost savings for airlines if they can operate the 777 instead of the 747's and A380's (all though I do love the 747's).<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Remy Mermelstein<br />777-300 FS Pilot Quote "The Skies the limit" Remy Mermelstein 777-300 FS Pilot, Deltava P3Dv4.1, ASP4, UTLive, ReShade + URP + PTA, All settings max'd, i7 Core Extreme @ 5.2gHz, GTX 1080, CyberpowerPC Gaming Laptop, 500GB SSDx2, 32GB DDR4 RAM.

March 12, 201313 yr Are these used on certain routes? As i think i was on this class on EGBB-OMDB sector ? Mostly used on pilgrimage flights to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. UAE also run this sector on their 380s. Went on UAE803 to OEJN with A6-EDH last year. I believe it's the shortest 380 flight in the world. Lionel

March 13, 201313 yr Don't tell this to Japan Airlines or ANA as they will ask for a 777D version to cram 500 seats inside to replace the long lost 747-400D a.k.a the domestic sardine can. Chris Sunseri

Get the A380 then and do all economy. U could cram way over 500 people that way providing they can approve it.
