@JMulliganIndo . @avolon_aero CCO John Higgins tells @IndoBusiness that it “could well” convert some new @Boeing Max orders into Max 10s. #PAS17 #aviation.
@jonostrower Max 10 a domestic aircraft for United, no seating configuration yet. Will take first 10 in 2020, first Max 9 in April 2018. #PAS17.
@MalsenAviation Very interesting comments from @tonyfernandes today stating @AirAsia now has no intention of returning to #London or even #Europe.
@tonyfernandes AirAsis x is flying.Model is working. We have decided that ultra long haul is not relevant now.Won’t get seduced into price wars over london.
@tonyfernandes We will stick to the 8 to 9 hours. Our Focus will be asia. With the odd route like hawaii which is actually 8 hours form japan.
@tonyfernandes We let the full service guys fight it out over Europe. Many of them bleeding so so much.
