Most of Aer Lingus' own A332s are older than this aircraft but are in far superior condition cabin wise, just goes to show these middle eastern carriers may have the glitz and glamour of on board suites and lounges but their day to day upkeep is often shoddy. As for the problems listed, short of ripping the entire cabin out and starting again I doubt there's much more they can do, everything else will be quick fixes. I doubt the planned business class refit later this year will extend to anything else.

From speaking with crew they believe they're going to rip out and replace the galleys and convert to the same as the other 330s as this aircraft is short on seats but that it was supposed to happen over the winter.

Dublin preclearence serves them well speaking of which took me and hour and 15 to get through it on Thursday. The queue went up the escalator s and down towards the 400 gates and turned back towards duty free with lots of skipping.

Tenger wrote: » Makes sense. My understanding is that EI require 3 flight crew due the length of the sector Assuming a pilot was ill and they diverted, the remaining 2 couldnt carry on without a rest period. As they would already have operated for several hours. And thats before whatever time the diversion and medical offload took up.
