Radzi 2 Report post Posted March 27, 2014 Return to lessor is the most likely scenario. Those 2 were hardly flown ever since the end of FY jet service. Since then they were flown by MH B734 pilots, which will retire the B734 fleet sometimes this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flee 5 Report post Posted March 28, 2014 That's mean no more will be use for charter flight to Nanning and Kunming as previously? There is still 9M-FZB - but I suppose, under the present circumstances when China is boycotting MAS and Malaysia, charter flights would also not happen.

Geoff R. 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2014 Routed Kuala Lumpur-Delhi-Abu Dhabi-Istanbul-Amsterdam-St Athan Why does an empty 737-4 have to make so many stops enroute? With a full passenger load I think a 737-400 can fly around 2000nm. Geoff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
