Good old SRL has just flown to a rather random destination - NGO! They must have run out of A330s for the evening and treated them to a 6 hour overnighter in lush purple tones...

The IFE itself I think was based on Android (there are android buttons at the bottom of the screen). Before this ANA flight, I was at the same position as you are because I fly SQ most of the time.
I actually was the one asked by the guy to use my pictures taken of the new features, and posted it in this forum (I have a habit of capturing the flight routes on flights i'm on). The feature simply explains points of interest nearest to the current location of the aircraft. Noted that it was not working on Tokyo flights (save for Singapore's area). Might only work for UK-bound flights
SQ16/15 seem to be very lucky to get those in January (As well as other 77WR routes). Hope they will implement it on 77WN (Definitely sure about 9V-SNB as someone stated it's getting all new seats installed since it came in empty).

But the 77WR maps (According to one video on YT and IG) are much better in contrast. The current 77W map I had in June lacked information compared to the 77WR on a video. Lacked Estimated Arrival Time, Local Time at Departure, and at Present Position.

Originally posted by 726 View Postjust about to say the same things on NRT route. Just checked and found out by next year NRT will use 772, but to be honest, if 77W goes to HND, that would be a lot better. If 77W left Tokyo altogether, that would drive me more towards ANA (just landed today in CGK from Japan using ANA for the first time for long haul - I use ANA on domestic and seoul routes). Really surprised by the quality of food - a really WOW, and business class seat). Though the IFE selection is rather meh
Hope the A350 have superior products than ANA (dimming windows, advanced inflight map, bidet toilet).

Delta announced (sort of off-handedly) that they bought (or signed a LoI, anyway) a used 777-200 for $7.7M. Rumor mill says it's one of SQ's birds, for part-out/scrapping. Not clear either if this is on top of the earlier reports of ex-SQ birds heading Delta's way.

One thing is sure: Delta CEO Richard Anderson is not the most popular person at Boeing HQ.
