Qantas LH on the 767ACE

Do Long Haul cabin crew at Qantas ever fly on the ACE 767?

LH crew are endorsed on them. I haven't heard of one being operated by a LH cabin crew since a NRT sub ex-PER in '03/'04. They were used on the Tasman regularly for 12-18 month stint sometime prior to that.

The 767RR (ACE) only operates domestic routes because of the galleys - they can't operate long haul flights.

The only reason I could see Long Haul operating a Rolls Royce is if it was subbed for an A330 on a PER-SYD/MEL or MEL-SYD/SYD-MEL pattern that was part of a long haul trip

The aircraft are really unpopular amongst domestic crew and I believe they find it quite a challenge to work on at times - I'm not sure how Long Haul would find an RR on a short SYD-MEL flight!

Obviously the GEs are operated by Long Haul crew on SYD-HNL and PER-NRT but they're a very different aircraft in terms of cabin layout and galleys - the QF seat maps show this

They are ex-BA hence the ACE galleys.

Good old BA 767s

Yep they are.
I don't think anybody else in the world ever bought them with RR power and QF were daft enough to take a few off our hands!
