No you read me right first time, if we're going to have something else plying these route for a yet to be determined timescale, then it needs presence and short of 747 or A380 then the 340-300 will do that, it might go unnoticed at CDG or LHR but at OSL or ARN 340 are not that common and al, the more important at the destination end that needs the brand building.
I guess it will have a few more seats that a 787?
