Useful on some of the longer 4-5 hour runs… double the price just for an extra airline meal!
Historically they used to operate the odd 747, 757, 767 on these routes. I guess maybe on the rare occasion you’d get the 787 now?
Tel-Aviv is currently operated with a 789 and 350-1000 combination
Amman/Cairo/Larnaca/Paphos with 321NEO
Paphos from Gatwick with a Euroflyer 320 (sometimes a leased in one)
Whilst Sharm will be operated with a 77E over the winter
Fact is BA mid haul network has declined considerably in the years since BMED and their presence in Sub Saharan Africa is pathetic by comparison to Star and Team competitors.
