Selling A340s?
They are not Toyota Corolla and would take year(s) to get rid of them. Unless you sell them at a very deep discount, or with the condition that they are in, sell them like scrap metal.
From what I heard, this is happening right now with 2 of their old A340s.
As far as the Far East is concerned, it can only be referring to SIN and HKG.
My bet would be MNL and KUL (political reasons).
BKK would be on the chop list in my opinion but only if they get those A319LR first in order to put them on FRA and CDG (which would take 2 years at least)?
