There's an A319 of Eurowings DASTX also used...
probably because SN doesn't have enough aircraft right now to deal with the summer madness, which is a good thing

one some new planes there's a wifi antenna but this feature isn't activated by SN as they want to keep the inflight experience standard.

Anyone knows what OO-SFE is doing in Amman?

Yesterday and today OO-SFE had several short flights (?). I thought it was only there for a cabin refit. Or are there also technical issues with the bird?

See: https://www.flightradar24.com/data/aircraft/oo-sfe

Cheers,
Danny

OO-ABA of Air Belgium is also there, for D-Check.

Might be C or D-Check as well.

these are no flights but just the moments the transponder was switched on and the plane was moved around on the ground

Saw this picture on Jetphotos.net.
Airbus A330-343 9V-STO to become OO-SFF with an all white livery on the fuselage.

I am probably one of the few but I've always liked a eurowhite livery. In my opinion it adds soms class to the airline.

All white fuselage is the standard on LH Group aircraft: easy change from one airline to the other.

Then again, LH in its new livery has a tale similar to SN and Austrian has red on the end of the fuselage as well. Only SN and LX carry an all white fuselage.

SN has rather a white livery on the top of the fuselage and a light blue livery on the bottom.

I hope this is just a temporary livery... It looks a bit empty without the extended blue tail. Could this be an indication that a new livery will be introduced soon?

I think that this will be the definitive livery. LH announced a while ago that it wanted to be able to change aircraft within the different airlines more easily. Apart from a standard cabin and other things, also the aircraft of the airlines would have a white fuselage. So when a plane changes from airline, like the a340s that came to SN, less paintwork would be needed.

I also think SN is going to get an updated livery. If it will have an all white fuselage, I hope the titles will be bigger (just like OS and LX). I found this image online with actual bigger titles and it looks quite good.

Not that bad... even if we can call it plain eurowhite livery indeed... Quite surprising though that no insiders did mention any livery change.
Would be nice if they could maintain the previous tail scheme (just like LH) and indeed enlarge the brussels airlines title (just like OS). For my part, no particular regret regarding the bottom blue (a bit outdated...).
