What's NCL Getting for a320

Avion ??
If so does anybody know the reg

[fjencl]

Smartlynx

What's the legroom like on Smartlynx A320's, somebody once said if you sit
in rows 2-5 or maybe 1-5 there is more leg room as they use these rows when the aircraft is used for business class product when operating for other airlines, not sure how correct that is.


Maybe somebody else who has flown on them can confirm this.


Thanks

Depends on which type of seats are fitted, they are all different depending on what previous customer specs were. Problem is the aircraft will get rotated around the network, so who knows which aircraft will end up where.
No NCL this year, Avion are doing it.

[SWBKCB]

They haven't rotated the leased aircraft in previous years.

[Smokie]

They are this year, as there are different bases from previous years.

G-JMCE/D

Hi all
I would just like to ask when will G-JMCD/E be withdrawn ?
as i understand they are leaving this spring
They are currently based in Glasgow

Also is anyone aware of the aircraft that will be based at glasgow during the summer?
also if anyone knows the registrations that would be of assistance thanks.

Kind regards
Alasdair

There will be 3 757-200's at GLA this summer with the other being based at MAN, and these will be on Rotation. I believe this will be the final summer season with the 757-200's as well

With Thomas Cook increasing its long haul fleet both in the UK and with Condor in Germany, I'm guessing they will be thinking about fleet renewal at some point. Would they be more likely to order the A350, A330NEO or the 787's to replace the existing A330s (TCX/VKG) and 767 (DE).

[alasdair1]

Dear goldeneye and all,
I think tcx will opt for either the.A330Neo or.A350 xwb as they are hoping to. Make a common fleet
And cost savings in maintenence.

My guess would be that a long haul order from the Thomas Cook Group is up for grabs for whichever lessor/manufacturer offers the best deal. I think the A350 will be too much airplane for what they need making it a straight shootout between the A330NEO and B788.

G-TCDH due for delivery today according to Jethros site , Guessing its heading into MAN ?
