CX A330 fleet.
 

Are there 21 or 23 A330s in the CX fleet.

On the website it gives 21, but in the 2004 interim report there are 23 in the fleet with a further 6 on order (delivery '05-'07).


Another quick question while I'm at it; what is the (underfloor) cargo capacity in tonnes/volume of the passenger B744? One of the advantages of the A346 is supposed to be increased cargo capacity - is that mainly increased volume when comparing to the B744?

There are 23 A330's B-HLA - HLW

SMOC

for underfloor capacity by volume, it seems b777-300 carries more pallets than b744. for a346, the underfloor crew bunk taken up quite some space...

Google search throws up some interesting figures for cargo.

A330-300..........32 LD3s or 11 pallets
