787 Dreamliner - in operations yet?

[Cejkovice]

The first 787 was delivered to ANA last week in Japan, but very little is in the news of this delivery. I expect that ANA are performing pilot trainings, but have any passengers flown yet?

I even heard that there were airframe issues which arose on the delivery flight to Japan. DOes anyone know any more about this?

Proving runs can take some time. I am not clear on their CAA's regs, I am sure they want nothing more than to provide great reliability (pilot/mechanical and inflight service).

Answer #1. See the ANA site for all kinds of information.

Side note: There will be a charter flight on 26 October for charity.

Answer #2

My understanding was that there were no squawks on the delivery flight home.
