From the Friday Telex (Ivan)
"You may have seen some reports in the media regarding quality issues in our A350 cabins. There have indeed been problems, particularly with the Business Class seats but also with the toilets, overhead bins and galleys. We are taking all these issues very seriously and are working very closely with Airbus and Zodiac, the seat manufacturer, to get quick fixes and longer-term solutions in place.
One action being taken is to replace the original shipsets of Business Class seats in our first three A350s, with the work beginning next month in Xiamen. We are also looking at some of issues affecting the work of our cabin crew, including a solution for replacing the galley trash compactors which haven’t been functioning properly."
Yup, definitely this is a great "Time to Win" strategy.. Cut costs, aircraft parked with no seats, seats bad/breaking, fly to XMN for seat repair/refurb/replace.
JFC, I must be dreaming this.....
