What other routes is Virgin going to use the -600 on other than the India run, in the near or distant future? Is LAX going to see them anytime soon on one of the 2 dailies? Also, how many of them do they currently have on strength? Lastly, who else is supposed to take delivery of them other than Air Canada, anytime soon?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 09-08-02 AT 00:40 AM (GMT)]Ok, I had read it wrong, apparantly. I thought the initial route was to India, but it was in fact JFK.

RE: A340-600’s
While they only have one it will only be flying to JFK and EWR (Newark). It will replace the usual 300 on this route just in case there is a problem early on. Once they get two or three I heard they would be on Tokyo, Hong Kong and possibly Jo’burg by next year, never heard anything about them being used to India.
I think Cathay Pacific will be one of the other airlines to receive the 600 soon.
