Sharing a good article, few points have been noted * In flight Wifi in Cathay soon, figuring out the price sturcture * Zurich with 77W in December 2014 * Boston very likely to be launched in early 2015 * the 777-300ER has superb belly-cargo capability such that the airline is able to transport 100-120 tonnes of belly cargo on 5 daily flights to London Heathrow and 80 tonnes of belly cargo on 4 daily flights to Los Angeles, Aspire Aviation learnt. * 777-300ER and A350-1000 with a similar cargo capacity entering into its fleet * eye one 330-300 replacement with 777-300,200 medium haul aircraft replacement * The aforementioned reduction in block fuel burn would be partially negated by the EP2 enhancement package offered by engine-maker Rolls-Royce to its Trent 772C-60 engine which delivers a 1% cut in specific fuel consumption (SFC) on re-engineering A330, likely to see A330 continue to fly as powerhorse in years to come. aspireaviation/2014/04/01/cathay-pacific-in-for-long-haul/
