Naim 6 Report post Posted November 28, 2008 The seat pitch on DJ is 32 inches right...that's pretty good, no? Yes, if you are not too tall or too fat. That's the economy seat pitch of CX 773ER I took to JFK recently. But then the CX seat is very comfy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the welcome video for the IFE in D7's new A330, originally posted by Azri M. Doubt it will be the same with the leased A340 though. http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=OOP2BtKc-GU&fmt=18 Edited November 29, 2008 by Mulyadir Fitri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yusoff 1 Report post Posted December 1, 2008 One thing funny from the ads posted by Simon. "...Fly non-stop on our Airbus A340 to Stansted...", with Paris, Rome, Milan signages, but the airplane showed is the A330... Misleading... They think we can't distinguish between the 2 busses? Hmm.. it's RM579 now.. RM499 sold out already... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted December 1, 2008 ... with Paris, Rome, Milan signages, Cardiff by Red-Bus ? On RYR, Milan would be Bergamo, Paris would be Beauvais and Rome would be Ciampino (they would most probably quote Amsterdam, as Amsterdam-South, which is actually Eindhoven ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H C Chai 4 Report post Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) Meant to upload this but kept forgetting. An article about AKX to London, taken from the London Paper on 2 December 2008. Some of the information is already outdated, for example MH and Etihad fares were quoted at £605 and £634 respectively, they have since gone down to around £525 (MH) and £440 (Etihad). With the pound look set to drop below RM5 for the first time since 1997, travelling in the UK is now becoming much more affordable, especially compared to the Eurozone.

Sharil Abdul Rahman 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 Can anyone speculate on how the interior of the 343 will be like? a duplicate of the 333 or something a bit different? I know the seating for the flight will be 2-2-2 for premium and 2-4-2 for normal people, but still would like to imagine how the plane will be like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted January 8, 2009 I think the A343 will retain whatever inherited from Air Canada, just like the case of 9M-XAA Semangat Sir Freddie. So, I am speculating the interior will look like this: http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.sear...ine_version=6.0 Seat configuration of 2-2-2 for Business Class and 2-4-2 for Economy Class, as mentioned. Someone posted a picture of the very A343 that D7 will acquire somewhere in MW. I couldn't locate it, if not I would have filtered the interior photographs of that particular aircraft.
