flee 5 Report post Posted September 26, 2011 MLK is a leased plane - so no Sky Interior.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RobK 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Does it mean it isn't leased? But, Drewski listed -MLK as being -8FZ. No. They're all leased in the 9M-ML* block (the later ones at least). FZ is Babcock & Brown's customer code with Boeing. 9M-MLL/M/N are leased from them as well, but are adopting MASs customer code for reasons unknown. This happens with all other leasing companies except GECAS who refuse to let the airline use their own customer code, it's always their own - 6N. On a separate note, 9M-MXF delivers on Oct 19.

YOD1 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 I could've sworn that MAS was the only airline that used Sky Interior for its B738, but all of that has changed when GA implemented this technology into its newest B738. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-u-mBusB4E http://www.indoflyer.net/forum/tm.asp?m=573549 courtesy of danangdann at youtube and cbt744 at IF.

Isaac 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) Pardon my ignorance but i seriously do not get what message you are trying to convey here. Flydubai was the first airline in the world to feature the new signature interior on its 738 while MAS was the second (it's the first for full service carrier though). The newly delivered 737NG to Tuifly has it too and so does Air Berlin's. Continental Airlines (now United) has taken delivery of one new 738 in the new signature interior too, if i'm not mistaken. It's time for MAS to revamp its strategy ? I think they knew all along that many other airlines who take delivery of the 737NG after them will have the signature interior too.

Mohd Suhaimi Fariz 2 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 The Sky Interior is not an airline-specific option. Any airline can have the Sky Interior fitted on their 737NG if they want to, and according to Flight International 83% of all new 737NG are going to be fitted with the Sky Interior.

S M Tang 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 IIRC, current Boeing or B737 customers* will have the option of having BSI fitted in. However, new Boeing or B737 customers* will be 'forced' to have BSI fitted in. * I forgot if it was Boeing or B737 customers already. If my memory serves me right, it's B737 customers.

Johan Z 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2011 Qantas who will be nth BSI operator also uses it in their campaign (on Twitter at least). I don't see what's wrong with MH campaign at all, being the second (and first full-service) operator. They're still operating BSI aircraft and they don't claim they're the ONLY operator.
