777X & A350 - British Airways Fleet
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2023
- British Airways has a fleet of over 200 aircraft. In addition, it plans to welcome the Boeing 777X in the future. But what aircraft does it operate, what types are beginning to age, and what does the future look like for the carrier?

BA should split their 777-200ER replacements 50/50 between the 777-8 and the A350-900 and activate their 777-9 options to replace the 747. A350-900s would arrive sooner and are badly needed to replace the LGW 772s and their ancient onboard product. Meanwhile, the 777-8 can serve the premium heavy LHR routes and replace the first class capacity of the LHR 772s.
My thoughts exactly! The only thing I disagree is the A359. It would cost the airline more to retrain 772 pilots onto A359 if you slip it 50/50. Tho if push comes to shove maybe it would be financial feasible to go with your concept? Seeing as you need to maintain older aircraft maybe the maths turns out cheaper?
I think British Airways is looking very carefully at the situation with the777-9. Given even the small chance of that plane's cancellation, the airline may have to seriously look at a 25+ plane order for A350-1000's as a replacement.
Sensible choice going for the 350-1000 the 7X is a long way off
I think buying the A350-900 will most likely happen with an order for about 30 planes, since it will allow cross-certification of flight, cabin and ground crews on both the A350-900 and A350-1000 simultaneously.
A350-1000 is a long way short of the capacity of a 777-9. If Boeing walks away from the 777-9 is will because it is leaving the commercial aircraft market totally. There is a market for a 747-8 and A380 replacement that the A350-1000 cannot fill. It would be about 300 aircraft. There are also 777-300 operators needing a capacity boost. The 777-8F might keep the 777-8 alive because the 8F is now vital to the air cargo industry as the largest freighter by volume on offer. The A350F can lift the load and carry it but its volume is significantly less than the Boeing. Volume offers versatility when the cargo is not dense.
@@davidcarter4247 Doesn't make sense since the main problem of wide body in BA fleet is 777-200ER series. The direct replacement for those plane are A350-900 or 777-800 (not the 900 which is the direct replacement for 300 one). Considering the former is more available than the later which need certification, that seems like better option in short time.
There is no problem with 777-300ER which are only one decades+ old at most and they are contend with A35K and A380 for high passenger capacity high demanding route.
@@moharikram1687 The start of this thread was BA might have to buy the A350-1000 because of doubts over the 777-9. Point I was making is the 777-9 is not comparable with the A350-1000. The 777-9 has a place in the market as the largest airliner available. It is the closest thing to a VLA we have and is likely to be that way for decades to come. There are several hundred existing VLAs that will need to be replaced in addition to the more obvious market of a 777-300 replacement.
I can't wait to the see tbe 777x on those paints! There is a lot of existing over there!
Ty dj!!
Watching that clip of the BOAC 747 being trailed by the military jets brought a tear to my eye. What a beauty. On the other hand, I'm sorry but the A350 is the homeliest jet, with its blunt nose, I have ever seen.
Lots of variety in BA
genuinely can't wait to see the 777x in sevice , i don't care which airline flies it first.
In British Airways fleet, i love the Airbus A319, A380, and Boeing 777-200ER.
Wish they had kept the 747s though. Could have been useful for certain trunk routes to airports that can’t use the A380
Their 777-200s (non-ER) with GE90 engines are 1st stock of 777.
Flew on board one of these some years ago...
I love the A320 family and A350.
And of course the defunct A340-600 although not operated by BA fellow IAG member Iberia did fly the 340.
Most of BA's Airbus short haul fleet was picked up when they took over BMI, and Dan air London . Bmi had a lot of Airbus aircraft, and the BA Boeing 737s were old and tired.
No mention of IAGs 737 MAX order ? Some may go to BA
It's good that Boeing came up with the stretch 777x
Give Airbus something to worry about
The a350 though has quite a sleek design
What's Airbus plans for the a350, against the 777x????
The better version, A350neo with more powerful engines and longer range with even more fuel efficiency
Fit UltraFans on to an A350neo most likely, I can see a stretch happening too at some point, the A350 is already a more efficient design than the aging 777 airframe thanks to its lighter composite fuselage, so Boeing’s already losing out in that department, and the A350 is an objectively better aircraft for passenger comfort anyway
They probably want to see how the market treats it if it eventually rolls out
And the 350-1000 is fully certified and operating meanwhile the 7X is still experimental
But the 350 is not comfortable
AIRBUS 350❤😊
What about the Embraer?
Not sure where you got just 3 A321s from. They have 11 in their fleet, 7 of which are operated by BA Euroflyer.
I think BA need another livery refresh
Agree but still looks pretty modern though, no doubt they will adopt an all white fuselage when the time comes.
BOAC, perhaps? 😊
They really have a lot of old planes in service, don't they? For a "flag carrier" (are they still?) that surprises me. I would have thought to trade up, not least to take advantage of fuel savings.
The planes are paid for so for now it’s cheaper to keep them
@@terrysidhu1078 Cheaper only works if the higher fuel and maintenance costs offset the price and resultant efficiency of a newer plane. No doubt they have brought minds working on that, with their days to hand.
I personally didn't like flying the 350. It was too wobbly..
Perhaps they simply served you too much alcohol …
@@Clyde-2055 😂😂😂But I don't drink
@@Al_Idrissi_Everybody else cant praise a350 😂😂😂😂😂❤ enough .
Wow no A330s for BA
THE NEXT TO KING OF KINGS OF THE SKIES THE REAL B777-900X & B777-800X.
As an AV Geek, I'm weirdly not excited about the 777X. Can't say why, as I love the OG 777.
Some really old aircraft in the BA fleet. Seems as if they are being drip fed new aircraft by Boeing and Airbus.
What a change from B.O.A.C. (Boeing Only Airways Corporation), go with Airbus!
why?
@@nickolliver3021 that's the best option!
First!
Why do you feel the need to say this?
Not a competition
first
And why exactly do you feel the need to make that known?
Not a competition
Ba are not rhat great now
They’ll be flying the 77X soon? Oh good lord I hope you don’t get tested for taking Class ‘A’ in the foreseeable future, none of Boering’s Prime Carriers (LH QR & EK) are even getting a sniff of their orders in the coming years so WHY is BA going to be flying it soon? Tsk, Tsk, Tsk!! You’re not giving accurate information again. 😮
Got to agree with that ,which is why I think BA will order more A350's shortly.
This guy always favours Boeing over Airbus in any video
@@terencereeder9830BA are ordering more 787s , they aren't ordering a350s anytime soon . More 777-9s will be order a couple of years from now
Well seeing that they colonized the globe they should offer a discounted Ancestral Discovery Flight program so people can discover where they came from for less!
It’s not even a British company anymore, it’s Spanish
