Roy Chin 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2017 The heliconia livery was too heavy for them to lug around. But good exposure to the brand agree, they have dropped the classic cheatline livery so no point for them picking up the even heavier heliconia livery... the negaraku livery also left almost half of the front body plain color Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 Sharing the info from Jahur in bits corresponding to its respective threads for order of forum discussion. Airbus A350In 2015, we leased 4 Airbus A350-900s from ALC Leasing in California to replace our A380 aircraft on the London route. This was followed up by the lease of a further 2 A350-900s in early 2016. These aircraft have First, Business, Premium Economy and Economy class cabins. The first delivery of the A350 is expected at the end of November 2017 and the first operation of this aircraft on the London route is scheduled for 15 January 2018. The sixth and final A350 is due to arrive in Malaysia at the end of June 2018.The A350-900 can operate non-stop to any point in Europe, New Zealand and North Asia. Final commercial evaluation on the routes to be operated by the fifth and sixth aircraft is ongoing. The A350 aircraft are financed on a monthly rental lease agreement over a 12 year period. The Premium Economy bit does not correspond with the latest seat number that we have i.e. F4 C31 Y251. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mushrif A 3 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 Sharing the info from Jahur in bits corresponding to its respective threads for order of forum discussion. The Premium Economy bit does not correspond with the latest seat number that we have i.e. F4 C31 Y251. That premium Y is actually part of the total Y capacity. It is just Y seats with a bit more legroom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roy Chin 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 Oic. So they are replicating the cancelled A380 Premium Economy cabin/seat on the A350. Y 9 abreast, premium Y 8 abreast? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Bandit 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 maybe sort of Economy Plus with extra legroom as we can see just like 2 rows Y+ behind J class in A330. A380 also has the same thing, the seats counted 486 as 494 previously reported. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johan Z 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 A330 already has this Premium Eco. There are two rows of them and during flight, the area is cordoned off by a curtain from the rest of Economy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Tan 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2017 It'll be a stretch to call it Premium Economy if it's not being marketed any differently. At best it's an Economy+ or "Preferred seat" product. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted September 17, 2017 Y 9 abreast, premium Y 8 abreast? This was the cancelled product on the A380, which supposed to occupy the small cabin at the back of the upper deck, where the small Y cabin is located now. For the A350, it should follow the Y seat configuration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Bandit 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) Already implemented to all 6 A380s with 35" seat pitch and the pricing as below; While A350 prices higher. Edited September 17, 2017 by Mr.Bandit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flee 5 Report post Posted September 19, 2017 Malaysia Airlines looks to 'right-size' Airbus A350 first class You don’t need a large first class cabin to make luxury travel a viable proposition, Malaysia Airlines believes, with its upcoming Airbus A350 jets to feature just four first class suites. But how will this play out when that's only half as many as found aboard the Oneworld member's Airbus A380s, which the A350s will eventually replace? Malaysia Airlines CEO Peter Bellew speaks exclusively with Australian Business Traveller on the future of first class for the resurgent airline.

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted September 19, 2017 It should be a good thing. Lesser F seats (only 4 on each flight) means MH can demand a higher yield for it. Make it so exclusive that it is so hard to get them (you want it, buy it). However, at the end of the day, the seat is just an equal to QF's J, per the article. Nice info about Tokyo and Auckland being the top bets for the other A350 destinations. If AKL gets the A350, I think the redemption for F seats should be easy to secure.

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted September 27, 2017 Hot hot hot from the MH Rumour Department: Schedule for A350 training flights will be uploaded soon. Training flights will run through December 2017 until January 2018. The lucky destinations are PEN and SIN. Maybe a few more (BKI and KCH please keep your fingers crossed). And obviously, there will be a brand new smashing inflight safety video. And, there could be a surprise at AMS but don't hold your breath over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
