Something completely different; any news on a possible delay for the delivery of their 787 ?
With recent safety issues one might expect some delay ?

The Jetairfly Boeing 787
Any news of the Jetairfly Boeing 787? First flight from Bru?
Re: Boeing 787 news
Here you can follow 787-9 flight test data:

But I can't help with more information, maybe some JAF staff active on this forum (though I believe it has already been mentionned somewhere on this forum when they'll operate the first flights and so on).

Their first 787 is currently undergoing final assembly (position 2 of the main production line in Everett, there are 4 positions in total). Delivery should be in November I believe.air belgium wrote:Any news of the Jetairfly Boeing 787? First flight from Bru?

Re: Boeing 787 news
This sounds like a great moment for a big Sinterklaas cadeau for avgeeks belgium !
Anyone from Jetairfly reading luchtzak.be ?
What more can I say, introductionflight for aviationlovers all over belgium!
Sabena filled four jumbojets in one day as a farewell flight, guess the 787 introduction deserves at least one !

Re: Boeing 787 news
Im sure it will be a big event to fly their B787 on the first flight to MIA. When was this flight foreseen again?

Re: Boeing 787 news
Just that JAF won't fly their B788 to MIA but only JAP following their initial shedule !
Punta Cana it will be, but first some european routes only like BA,LO,..
or a roundflight like the SN jumbo's..

Re: Boeing 787 news
Why not? It is a shame to fly to a new prestigious destination like MIA and not using the new B788JAF737 wrote:Indeedcathay belgium wrote:Just that JAF won't fly their B788 to MIA but only JAP folling their initial sheduled !

Re: Boeing 787 news
The first flight to MIA is in April.
I think we just don't know everything about the B787 projects yet.
But...first belgian B787, special aircraft, special airline = special things coming up for its first flight

Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787

Will there be individual in-flight entertainment?
Any info on seatptch/seats?
Will it be in a 'neutral' livery like the B767?

Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
What about Comfort Service/class? Thanks.
Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
Registration will indeed be OO-JDL.
300 passengers with 3 different classes, don't know the details.
Livery will be the full JAF version, the neutral livery on the B767 was only made for the coop with Thomas Cook in the past and is no longer...Jetairfly wanted their full livery on the aircraft since the beginning anyway!

Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
3 classes? Last I hear, it would be practically the same as the Thomson 787s?
- Comfort, +/-50 in a 2-3-2 config.
- Eco, +/-250 in a 3-3-3 config.
Anyway, we'll see soon enough

Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
So economy class in 767 (2/3/2) was better?

Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
I just made a HUGE mistake, it's normal 3/3/3 in a 787 economy class. Sorry!
Re: The Jetairfly Boeing 787
The cabin width (interior) on the 767 is about 4,70 m. If I'm not mistaken, the 787 adds about 80 cm to that number, at 5,50 m.
So it is rather easy, and still pretty comfortable to go to 9 abreast vs 7 abreast.
