Che non abbiano sbagliato a scrivere e sono 594 o 694? 394, un due sole classi, mi pare un controsenso per una lc. Equivale ad un 320 per piano!

394 posti??? Sono meno di tutte le altre configurazioni ad ora esistenti... mi sà tanto di errore.
E poi la frase "The carrier plans to fit the superjumbos with 394 seats, divided between business and premium economy" che significherebbe? Non c'è la economy, solo la business e la premium?
sono 394 al primo piano e 394 al secondo
anzi stanno pensando di abbassare i piani e soppalcare un pezzo e ricavare altri 200 posti

Certo che riempire 114 posti business e 280 premium economy, per una compagnia praticamente p2p fuori da qualsiasi circuito di alleanze non deve essere un'impresa facile.

Certo che riempire 114 posti business e 280 premium economy, per una compagnia praticamente p2p fuori da qualsiasi circuito di alleanze non deve essere un'impresa facile.
L'unico modo è vendere l'economy premium a prezzi molto convenienti poco di piu' di una economy scontata di altre compagnie.

Diverse compagnie all business hanno fallito ma alcune stanno avendo successo come l'Avion, quindi aspetterei per dare per fallimentari questi voli.

Airbus To Sue Skymark Over A380 Contract

Airbus is suing Skymark Airlines in Britain, escalating a half-year spat over a cancelled jet order and complicating the efforts of Japan's third-biggest carrier to rebuild its finances.

Airbus "has filed a claim in the English court," said Tokyo-based Airbus spokeswoman Utako Fujiso. She declined to comment further on the case.
Skymark understands that "Airbus is beginning preparations for litigation regarding a penalty for breach of contract," said Skymark spokesman Hiroyuki Sakata. "Discussions with Airbus towards the resolution of this problem are proceeding and will continue to do so."
Airbus cancelled a USD$2 billion contract with Skymark for six A380s in July after the carrier struggled to raise cash to pay the instalments.
Skymark's stock plunged 17 percent on Monday to JPY¥316 on news of the lawsuit.
The fall undid much of a more-than tripling of the share price since mid-August. The stock peaked at a one-year high of JPY¥520 on Thursday on news that Skymark is in talks with four investment funds to sell a less-than 25 percent stake in the carrier early next year.
It has also been seeking code-share deals with ANA and Japan Airlines.
Airbus's legal claim against the only Japanese buyer of the A380 is a setback for Skymark's attempts to reverse its fortunes.
Established in 1998, Skymark has been Japan's most successful budget carrier to date, and was a rare example of a small airline surviving without affiliation with either ANA or JAL. But tough competition from the country's dominant carriers saw Skymark incur losses that left it unable to finance the purchase of the A380s.
Skymark forecasts a net loss of JPY¥13.7 billion (USD$114.6 million) for the financial year ending March.
For Airbus, the cancellation of the contract was a blow in its efforts to sell the A380. A fortnight ago the plane maker predicted flat profit for 2016, surprising investors who had expected new and recently upgraded models to boost results.
The forecast came on the back of flat sales of the A380, as aggressive marketing struggled to overcome airlines' preference for lighter, twin-engine models.
