Qantas B744 PE And Cabin Upgrade Update?

Brad Myer · #1 10th July 2009, 05:05 PM

Hi all,

With pretty much all 3 class B744s now featuring the new premium economy product, as well as the new/refreshed cabin interiors...

Does anyone know when the current 7 2 class B744s will begin to get PE and the other interior upgrades? Do any have it either yet?

And does anyone know what the new 2 class cabin config will be?

Thanks

Does that mean that now there are no 3 class 744's and only '4 class' until the 2 classers get upgraded?

Correct. OEJ is one of the last 3 class B744s to be converted and she is currently in AVV having it done.

Anyone got info on when/if the 2 class upgrades will begin.

Isn't OEB at Avalon having it done? OEJ is back.

Could be either... OEB and OEJ are the last 3 class B744s to be upgraded.

It says in the QF investor presentation that:

*Full roll-out of premium economy

Anyone know when/if any of the 2 class B744s have got or getting the PE cabin installed?

Any updates?

was it not also mentioned, that Premium Economy was selling beyond expectations, and the number of seats available would be expanded. Would that be at the expense of Economy or Business class?

Or was it just one of several meaures that were being looked at and not yet confirmed.

Couldn't make sense of what was exactly said during the presentation.
