Default Re: Utfasing av A340

Philippine Airlines faset ut sine A340 i stillhet i slutten av september, nå er det ingen A340-operatører igjen i Asia.

Philippine Airlines (PAL) has become the latest airline to phase out A340s, operating its last A340-300 scheduled flight at the end of Sep-2018 without fanfare. PAL accelerated the retirement of its last four A340-300s, a sensible decision given the recent rise in fuel prices.

PAL has quietly parked its last four A340s over the past month. The airline phased out two A340-300s earlier this year but was initially intending to keep four aircraft operating until at least 2019. However, PAL decided recently to pursue an accelerated and rapid phase-out.

Two of PAL’s A340-300s operated their last revenue service in mid Sep-2018 and two more operated their last revenue service in late Sep-2018. PAL’s last scheduled A340 flight landed in Manila from Vancouver on 30-Sep-2018.
