Besiedes, they want to capture market from SIN :rolleyes:

 

 

 

I'm not asking why FY choosing JHB. I'm asking why they choosing B734.

anyone providing a short TR for inaugural flight FY to sbw? :D

 

Hopefully our members inboard the flight will do the TR; I'll do the coverage on the launching event later on.

Since FFF is a new built direct from Boeing, does it come with the Sky Interior?

Nope, all leased aircraft feature the old interior.

are you referring to me? :blink:

well, lets hear my story hehehe

 

i arrived KLIA around 6.15am. just noticed that we changed our check in counters to the other side.

the new check in counters are for the passangers, while the previous one will only be used for special occasions.

it is dedicated to VIP, media & staffs.

FY COO and KUL station manager were there to ensure smooth operations.

 

i waited for the DCA personnel, then we checked in together.

around 7.05 we boarded. DCA went to the cockpit occupying the jumpseat to conduct audit.

There was suppose to be another DCA personnel to inspect cabin but she opted evening flt to SBW.

 

touched down, DCA conducted debriefing, disembarked, greeted by FY and MW station managers, then went straight to hotel.

thats all for today.

 

tomorrow: SBW station audit <_<

Two of FY's B738 9M-FFD and 9M-FFE with eyebrows.

Yes, both these planes are ex-South African Airways and are more than 10 years old. Their B734s are ex Aer Lingus and are more than 19 years old.
