        Owned. Once SKA-E are out, the only leased aircraft in the fleet will be all A330s, 4 A380s and 3 77Ws.

              AusBT will be, although it'll be another member of the team rather than myself (I did the launch event last month and will be on the first SYD-SIN flight next week, so sharing the love around!)

                      Long ago announced SIN-SYD as first, they're keeping their powder dry on second route but signs point to London.

                          SQ322 will get the new bird from March next year. What they can't make their mind up on is what flight back down from LHR they use it on initially. It should be 317 but they are weighing up whether to tweak the flights and aircraft.

                              9V-SKU has landed at Changi. Is there any special ceremony to welcome her?
