Delsyed again today looks like cancellation due tech issues.
ACMS if you have heard of flight aware go take a look at the three months operations of of Cairns since the 787 replaced the A-330 and do a quick comparison.
So let's see 3 engine changes plus how many delayed and cancelled flights?
Delta has now fully jumped ship. JAL as well. ANA has told Boeing it's not touching them again.
JQ are sending emails to staff I am told explaining they are "working" with Boeing to attempt to fix the cancellations and extensive delays.
Ok if JQ where the first operator in the first 3 months of ops maybe just maybe I could understand.
However the aircraft has been in service worldwide for what three years and it still has an AD grounding hanging over its head due icing problems.requires operators to flight in no higher than 30k in the tropics and how many miles off track.
It must be costing a small fortune.
In fact it's probably a large fortune.
