La Tribune (also picked up by FT Deutschland) reporting that Aeroports de Paris is concerned about possible runway damage when AF replaces its 747 longhaul services with 8 777-300s in ORY as from 2006.
380s aren't a problem supposedly, due to weight distribution of 25t per MLG wheel vs 28t for 777-300.
Bill for strengthening the runway to be shared between ADP and AF.<p>
A pretty good rumour, if you ask me...
Update
AF has them kitted out in all-Economy for the Caribbean services, with few options for using them on other routes.
Price tag for runway strengthening estimated at €100m.
Oooops....
