It was said in a another thread that out of the remaining 18 -300ERs to be delivered, there are still some -351.5t aircraft.
There is already slack in the 36 strong fleet of 349/351.5t MTOW aircraft, and besides GRU/SEA/IAD/BOS/ADL/ORD(May 1st) does any other route require anything above 340t on a regular basis?
If indeed there are a few more -300ER's coming with the highest MTOW option (last was -EGI), they must have something planned with them.
It has been said that capacity will be doubled to the U.S. over the next 2 years. DFW/SFO/IAH going to the A380 has certainly been a increase in capacity, however they will have to increase frequencies.
Back to double LAX and/or IAH? (Additional frequencies on the -300ER?)
