JAL Extends A300 operation into April 2011

Post by sn26567 »

Due to Japan Earthquake leading to aircraft re-assignment and requires extra capacity to Japan’s Northeast, JAL is extending Airbus A300 operation till 30APR11.

Initially the A300 was to be phased out with the start of the summer season. After the phase-out, JAL will again become an all-Boeing airline.

Thats near imposible since they ended freighter operations six months ago, also the A300 is an oddity in JL fleet that needs to go, they would probably lease older 767F instead, their own ones got sold to new owners.
