The 6 newest GE powered 744 will stay subject to decisions on fuel/Maintenance et cetera.
Not sure the 787 can do SYD-JNB or SYD-SCL so that's 4 aircraft staying for a while.
Is it only Casa that prevents twin engine widebodies on the Australian register doing South American runs as Air Nz & Latam do it with their 787s.
