Hi,

I was wondering if Kulula still has any Boeing 727's left? Are they planning to get more 737-400's. Has anyone flown on them? Are they good?

Regards

Kulula's B727s actually belong to Safair but I dont know how many B727s they were using. They have 3 B737-400s and I think they were supposed to get around 8 B737-400 from BA UK. (I type under correction here) Think the "new" 73s were all financed through Safair.

Flew with the B734 last year from CPT-JNB-CPT and it was fine. No complaints.

If not already the 727 will be completely phased out and replaced with the 737-400. They are much cheaper to run so it seemed to be a good investment for Comair.

So that just leaves Nationwide as the only airline flying pax in sa with the 727.

Hi

I heard the same from a friend of mine. Maybe Real Orca can shed some light on the aqusition plans. Are the -300's going to replace the old -200 Basics?

Cheers

TIPR,

SAFAIR holdings is currently busy buying 3 x "new" 737 - 800's.

These might be destined for KULULA soon.

Unless they buy the 800 from SAA & back lease them to SAA until their A320's arrive?

Good luck to KULULA....Man you ous do It the rite way!

Keep It up.....Not too hard as the blood drainage from the top storey might confuse you?

Goblin,
Hope you are keeping well!

Dont want to jump the gun, but there are something in the pipeline. End of August seem to be the date. Watch this space for the official announcement.

Lo all,

Vrottels (laaik jou handle bru :E ) - if I read between the lines what Dean and ORCA are saying .. I know SAA was not happy with the 738's from the start - something 'bout the loading to do ? The Cargo Door ?

So If I "catch the drift" - Kulula will have 738's ORCA ? :E

Cheers,

GUNNS

Vrottels u bin at 28 bru ?

No, not 738 but 733,s. Slightly bigger than the 200's with the same glass cockpit and engines as the 400's.

Nothing official yet....
