Not sure of the plans for the two new arrivals next year, I'd imagine three at Gatwick, one at Manchester. They're much more premium heavy than the -8s, so better suited to the LGW market.
I had always thought that the 789s would be extras on the 788s.
Hadn't anticipated they would dispose of 788s when the 9s arrived.
Harder to predict how much further the route network can expand with the 787 fleet now.
