Great news if true qfguy, but even if the schedules are loaded in Amadeus the availability has not become live in either Amadeus or by crosslink to Sabre.
Maybe no regulatory approval yet?

The other rumour once again is Berlin. The funniest part of all this is that they are paying people a years pay in redundancy to leave with the last people leaving I think in July and they will then have to start training on the aircraft. What a great transformation plan!!!

I don't think OJA has been a problem. I think that bird has saved the day on the final farewell tour since late last year.
They need extra aircraft for what a friend calls 'ORG SLACK'. Hilarious as the 744 fleet is known as International Rescue. OJQ, OJR etc are a quicker fix than waiting for orders that are not even activated.
How did it get to this in the first place?

Buckshot that is so funny. I'm a twit as I just wrote the 2 rego's before S and T. LMAO!
Thanks for the message and pic!! I should look before I post. God to think that was scrapped!!!
Which ones are preserved. I seem to remember OJO was ok?
Back to school for me!
Thanks again

Maybe the leased 777s that are on their way will cover the SFO flying? 
If they go back to SFO, maybe they can be extended into Canada somewhere, isn't the new board member Canadian?
Make sense if it was to the East though and not just up to YVR as Canadian are doing the non stop from YVR to SYD which is better than a YVR-SFO-Oz service.
How are the loads on the SYD-YVR service during the ski season? Maybe they could keep that service going?
