But if the aircraft is to be deployed in the Gulf sector then i doubt if they'll put any IFEs _________________ http://www.myspace.com/avsatsworld

Is the seating really that much on a 332? 350 pax sounds excessive, I thought a 332 has more like around 250 seats in total (J+Y)?
Good to see IC get hold of this beautiful a/c - they need to start the process to order additional 332 as well (with an option to convert the orders to 350s when that beast is closer to reality). And the 333 would be ideal for the medium-haul high density markets like the Gulf, KUL, SIN etc. But that assumes that IC is able to fill their current 320s on these sectors |

I agree Nimish, but i can see that novair used a high-density charter layout with 9 abreast, where most airlines use 8 abreast for A330/A340 configurations. I dont know if IC will change the layout, but i would feel a bit cramped in an aircraft that has 100 more pax than other airlines. |

Oh shucks - I did not realize that. That seems like torture! I hope it's not as bad as I think it is. |
