Hi Steve,

The YI series aircraft are configured for international ops. Basically what this means is that they have life rafts and signalling equipment, amongst other safety equipment, on board which the YV and YF series don't have.

All the VH Pac Blue aircraft have these along with VUY, VUZ and VUE.

Regards,
-Rob-

Steve, the I indicates they are configured for International Operations. They have 26K engines, ACARS, SATPHONE, life rafts etc etc all installed as standard.

The YF primarily domestic ops and YV transcontinental.

Also, YFK left Seattle today on delivery. ETA 1530 Brisbane tomorrow afternoon.

Not sure if it's in Atlas Jet paint or Saudi - last paint job was Saudi.
