Radzi 2 Report post Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Only four B777-2H6ER left doing active service to Guangzhou, Paris and Amsterdam. 9M-MRA, MRE, MRL and -MRM. MRP and 9M-MRQ have been quiet for past few weeks. I flew MRQ to CDG on the 3rd of this month. For the European flight they need at least 2 aircraft per destination Aircraft A depart midnight on the first day and arrive back only on the morning of the 3rd day. Aircraft B will depart midnight on the 2nd day and come back in the morning of the 4th day. CAN can be slotted in between. MH will stop DXB and starting codesharing with EK inthe mddle of February.

Hey Captain, thank you for the correction. Apparently flightradar has not captured any more flight after your flight. According to flightaware, last flight was MH21 the return leg on 4th Jan. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/9MMRQ/history/20160104/1100Z/LFPG/WMKK Edited January 14, 2016 by JuliusWong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vicknesh PS 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2016 Yes, most 772 pilots will not be around very soon. Best wishes and best of luck to you guys! Hope you guys keep on flying. I am guessing there will be no pilots for Canton but MAB does not want to make an announcement yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Radzi 2 Report post Posted June 27, 2016 Thanks for the info Julius; Looks like Bayu Air is going to operate 4 B772ERs I won't bet on it. Currently there are a few new airlines eyeing ex-MH B777s, including Bayu, Waqf and Suasa. Who will end up operating them depends, among others, on those airlines getting the coveted AOC first.
