flyer55, the order announced today is just a bridging order that will allow immediate, small expansion from the end of next year/very early 2009. the full order for 35-60 aircraft will be announced around early summer time. they are currently evaluating the 777/787/747-800/A380/A330 and A350XWB.
again, these aircraft will be LHR based, because that is where 99% of the company's focus is, not 35 miles down the road.
