  1. Great coverage BA. Kudos. Also, we understand that Air France has replaced its Airbus 330 with B777 on Paris- Bangalore route from this week. May be you can cover this too.

  2. “Our customers are equally excited by the aircraft and its on-board product” – Sure, for the thick wallets and the front rows! No excitement for the cattle class! It is time to have a FAA/ICAO regulation for economy class comfort.

    • Qatar has much better legroom & better seats on it’s B777 compared to Emirates. It seems Emirates is now catering to ‘Price Conscious Customers’ than ‘Value for Money Customers’ & certainly CHEAP is not VFM.

  3. Hope Emirates uses these 777-300ERs on more routes to India, as they use the older A330-200s on most destinations to India…India gives so much revenue to Emirates deserve bigger better Aircrafts…
