Qantas to order 12 ultra-long-range A350 or 777X next year for "Project Sunrise" routes
The Australian flag carrier has already carried out two research flights for these routes with no paying passenger on board on New York - Sydney and London - Sydney routes with its Dreamliners. The third and the last research flight with a Boeing 787-9 jet will be conducted next month. (airlinerwatch.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
This project has generated lots of noise....but profitable sales interest airplane manufacturers, and 12 aircraft isn't enough.....
It's not like Airbus has already developed an ULR version of one of their jets for an even smaller order size or anything *cough cough* 7 ULRs for Singapore *cough cough*
What?
He is saying that neither Boeing nor Airbus have shown much interest in developing an aircraft with a market size of 12 planes.
Simple question - 20 hours in economy on a premium fare?? 14 hours on an A 380 sector is bad enough.
Unless the aircraft are configured in a 2-class with only Business and Premium Economy.
