Well there is another rumor that the CP wants GF to get a couple of 777s & operate to the states!
Here we go again!?
good after noon chaps,
not a bad idea. i have flown with qatar airways and emirates to USA and it was quiet difficult to get a seat for my family. long story short it is a good idea as pax demand for that continent is quiet high. I am not that familiar with the airbus fleet but cant the 333s(which may be arriving somewhere next year ) fy to USA ( non stop). at the same time having the 777s is a great idea.
and bahram jee makes a good point. GF will have to purchase or lease 3 to 4 777s. but it seem abit odd to purchase 4 aircraft just to fly to USA. what would seem logical is purchasing enough 777s for USA and the far east.
