I jut read on a different site that OS is getting rid of their 330's? Wouldn't this be the right moment for SNBA trying to get one out of the 4 330's from OS???
I think it's now or never...

now or never? Sure other companies think the same, like Swiss, LH, .. not even to talk about carriers further away. The A330 is a very popular ac at this moment, thus the high lease prices, so I dont think SN will be in the race for these

OS will continue long range operations, with a boeing fleet (767 and 777)

They will bring their workforce down with about 1000 people coming year..

It is time for SNBA to get 4 out of 4 !
And they should JUMP to this opportunity.

However they are surely not as you say the only candidates.
LX and TP got some from LH these recent months so I presume LH like OS is downscaling their A330 fleet.

But probably EI or AirMadrid could be interested too, not mentioning LX , TP and many others probably.[/u]

Hmm, these are P&W powered and US has P&W 333s. OZ is a Star Alliance Member and so it US.

Hmm....
