Air China using 748i to LHR today 4 Dec.

Mon Dec 04, 2017 10:07 am

Today's CA937 is operated by a 748i B-2487, think this is the first visit to LHR of one.
Reason for switch ? It seems to be a one-off.

Which route gets CA’s B748i regularly? Is it working out better than 77W?

Doesn't KE send a 748i to LHR?

EDIT: Just checked FR24, KE send the 77W.

I think PEK-FRA, PEK-JFK, PEK-SFO, (PEK-LAX) and some domestic routes such as PEK-SHA, (PEK-CAN), PEK-CKG.

Yes KE sends their 748i in many days a week in summer ( alternatives with the A380 ) but I'm asking why specifically CA is sending one in today. Whatever reason, nice movement for anyone still there when it comes in, although it'll be getting dark already when it does. At least weather is calm and not too cold for anyone waiting for it !
