That is great news! Love the new interior style.
What I do not understand is why an airline operates worn out 22 year old 763's and waited to spend a fortune to refurbish them just as retirement is pending. I know the 787's situation played a part but still... |

Hi Steve S,
I was thinking the same thing!! Why waste the money on Refurbs to last only a few years, when they should just retire the B763's on a one for one basis now with new A330's. Stuart

I wonder who is actually paying for this? Is it QF or is this being funded by Boeing as part of the 787 delays?
I have been on the ANA refurbished 767 and they are a nice aircraft but I guess the QF refurb isn't to the same level as ANA? |

So don't really think the cost of the Qantas upgrade is too much but maybe could have been done a few years back! |

I understood that the ANA 767s with the 777-style interior were all new build & not refurbs. Didn't think they'd done any refurbs on their earlier aircraft?

Does anybody know which 767's have been upgraded thus far?

Pretty sure don't take this as a certainty:
OGG, OGI, OGM, OGQ, OGR OGS, OGV with OGJ in fitting

I am pretty sure OGG hasn't had the upgrade yet. I took it in October last year and it hadn't been upgraded as yet, still the current interior and a very bad tv screen!!
