Pensavo che il 767, a parte forse la versione -400 oppure configurazioni charter 2-4-2, generalmente fosse più piccolo come capienza rispetto agli altri due modelli. Invece il vuoto del 757 è dovuto ad una capienza maggiore rispetto al 321/737-10, oppure a questioni legate alla distanza coperta, o altro?
767 sostituito dal 787 che ha si versioni più capienti e di autonomia maggiore ma copre egregiamente le esigenze che copriva il 767.
Il 757 non è stato sostituito. Rispetto all'A321 e B737 aveva migliori prestazioni e autonomia. Le ultime varianti come A321 LR cercano di coprire quello che veniva richiesto al B757.

OK, chiarissimo.

Rimowa, dopo un paio d'anni [non proprio di successo], ha di recente abbandonato il 'programma' [delle e-tags]. Provato personalmente con LH – funzionava negli hubs, meno (o per nulla) in altri aeroporti (ed intendo scali tipo AMS o WAW che comunque hanno una vagonata di voli LH). Spero, per i FF di BA, che le cose vadano meglio (specialmente dopo 4/5 anni di trial).

Il fatto e' che quell'affare non serve quasi a nulla, se non a evitare i 3 secondi di stampa della bag tag. Si deve comunque lasciare il bagaglio al nastro, self service o 'umano', e se viene smarrita e viene re-flighted da un sistema 'vecchio stampo', in cui si cambia numero di bag tag, non funziona. In piu' non ha un sistema di geolocation...perche' geolocation non funziona.

Insomma, una soluzione costosa a un problema inesistente.

Il nuovo 321neo gia passato per FCO sabato scorso


​PICTURE: A321neo joins British Airways network


British Airways’ first Airbus A321neo is now plying its European network, following delivery last month.
The airline’s first aircraft (G-NEOR) entered service on 30 November between London Heathrow and Warsaw and is now operating across the BA European network to points such as Rome, Madrid, Gothenburg and Paris. It is one of 10 CFM International Leap-1A powered A321neos the airline has on order, according to Flight Fleets Analzyer. The airline already operates 18 older-generation A321ceos.



Unlike the seven A320neos currently in service with BA, the A321neo is operating from Terminal 5 at London Heathrow. BA has so far focused operations of its A320neos on services from Terminal 3.
BA’s A321neos incorporate the new Airbus Cabin Flex (ACF) arrangement, which has a revised door layout to facilitate more interior configuration options. The ACF layout, which is now standard on the A321neo, has each door two forward of the wing eliminated and replaced by a pair of overwing exits, although on BA’s A321neos only one exit is activated on each side.

BRITISH AIRWAYS TAKES OFF TO ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN



British Airways has today announced that it will fly from Heathrow to Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan, from June 2, 2019. Tickets are on sale from today.

The route will launch as a three-per-week service, operated on a three-class Boeing 787 Dreamliner – British Airways’ newest long-haul fleet that is 20 per cent more fuel efficient than other aircraft and features larger windows, mood lighting and the latest inflight entertainment. Return fares start from £499 for World Traveller, £773 for World Traveller Plus and £1,799 for Club World.

Robert Williams, Head of Sales for Asia Pacific and the Middle East, said: “It’s exciting to be flying between Islamabad and Heathrow from next year, which we believe will be particularly popular with the British Pakistani community who want to visit, or be visited by, their relatives. On the route, customers will enjoy the very best in flying. Not only is it being operated on our newest long-haul aircraft, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, but it will also be landing in to the new airport in Islamabad, which opened earlier this year.”

Thomas Drew CMG, the British High Commissioner to Pakistan, said: “I am delighted to be welcoming British Airways back to Pakistan. The launch of direct flights by British Airways between London Heathrow and Islamabad’s new International Airport is excellent news for both countries.

“The links between Britain and Pakistan are already extraordinary – from culture and cricket, to people, politics and education. I see this launch as a vote of confidence in the future of those links – and, of course, a reflection of the great improvements in the security situation in Pakistan in recent years. The return of British Airways will give a particular boost to our growing trade and investment links. British Airways itself joins an increasing number of British companies doing business in Pakistan. I hope too that it will allow more people from the UK to discover, like I have, what a beautiful country Pakistan is. I look forward to using the service myself when flight start in June.”

Watch Thomas Drew talk about the new route here:


Islamabad is a quiet and tranquil city with plenty of green spaces, gardens and parks. It is a hub for culture with a rich heritage and has an impressive collection of museums, markets, Mosques and hiking trails, as well as restaurants which serve a variety of cuisines from local Pakistani dishes to food from around the world. The airline has a long history of flying to the city and offered its first scheduled flights between London and the Pakistani capital in 1976.

Islamabad is one of four long-haul routes being launched by British Airways in 2019, its centenary year. The airline is also launching direct flights to Pittsburgh and Charleston in the US and Osaka in Japan, alongside several short-haul routes.

British Airways’ long-haul flights include complimentary food and drink, online check-in and free seat selection 24 hours prior to departure. The airline is amid a £4.5 billion investment for customers, including the installation of the best quality WiFi and power in every seat, fitting 128 long-haul aircraft with new interiors and taking delivery of 72 new aircraft. Next year, the airline will launch its new business class seat with direct aisle access.
