B-5917 A330-300 has been delivered to China Southern Airlines, their 1st new A330-300 for about 4 years. I've no idea of it's configuration, but it's one for SYD, BNE, PER & MEL to be aware of in case it shows up.

9M-MTL A330-300 has been delivered to Malaysia Airlines, & is operating her 1st service to Australia tonight - inbound to MEL as MH129.

Thanks to Paul F for the information.

A6-ENI 777-300ER Emirates is currently on delivery KPAE-DXB. Don't know whether it is a two or three class config yet.

A6-EFK 777-200LRF Emirates has flown, so expect it to be around in the next few weeks.

Hi folks... according to wikipedia (yeah, I know!) QF and JQ each have 2 A330-200s on order? Is this correct or would that be a leftover of the recent deliveries such as EBQ, EBR, EBS, EBP and EBV? Can't imagine JQ having news A330s on order when it's about to start transferring the existing fleet to QF!

Cheers
