    MH doesn't fly to Africa as well. MH operated one of the long route on Kuala Lumpur – Johannesburg and Kuala Lumpur – Cape Town – Buenos Aires. I think they cancelled the flights Africa and South America all together in Feb 2012.

    Also Delta Airlines and Qatar Airways serve in all 6 Continents.

    Longest A380 route, operated by Qantas, 13,804 KM, DALLAS FORT WORTH - SYDNEY - approx 16hr 50 min.
    QF 7/8 SYD-DFW/DFW-SYD. Have done this flight in Oct 2013 when it was B747-400ER. But on return from DFW, the flight was DFW-BNE-SYD as B747-400ER did not have range to do DFW-SYD non stop. Even DFW-BNE was a stretching it to limits, as when the headwinds as strong.. on many a times the flight used to get diverted to AKL for refuelling. I wonder when such a diversion is done whether a crew change is required due to crew going over limits. Good that the route is A380 now as the flight can come to SYD direct from DFW. On another note the A380 used for inaugural flight had to return back so SYD a few days later when operating QF to DFW yet again due to a fuel pump issue. Good it didnt happen on inaugural flight

    VH-OQL QFA380 on inaugural QF 7 had cowboy hat and scarf of Kangaroo

    Museum Opens World's First Boeing 787 Dreamliner Exhibit Nov. 8

    Monday, November 3, 2014
    Museum will accept aircraft from The Boeing Company during ceremony with Boeing employees and flight crews, Dreamliner open to the public

    SEATTLE, Nov. 3, 2014--On Nov. 8, The Museum of Flight will become the first museum in the world to add a Boeing 787 Dreamliner to its collection. The Boeing Company will donate Dreamliner "Number 3" to the Museum during an 11 a.m. ceremony with Doug King, President and CEO of The Museum of Flight, and numerous Boeing leaders and employees. The airplane will be in the Museum's East Parking Lot, and open to the public from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday, and all day Sunday, Nov. 9. The ceremony and entry to the aircraft are free with admission to the Museum.

    To celebrate the Dreamliner's arrival, the museum will be free for all Boeing employees, retirees, and suppliers, plus up to six guests apiece on November 8-9. Employees and retirees must show proof of Boeing employment to take advantage of this offer.

    The aircraft will be temporarily relocated and closed to the public Nov. 10-21 while it is being prepared for permanent exhibition, beginning Nov. 22.

    Dreamliner Number 3
    This particular 787, ZA003, was the third Dreamliner built. It first flew on March 14, 2010. In addition to its role in the flight test and certification program, Boeing flew Number 3 to 23 countries during a global showcase of the 787 called the Dream Tour. While on exhibit at the Museum, the airplane's interior will be partially configured as an airliner and flight test aircraft, with the remaining space devoted to displays covering the development of the 787, including artifacts from the program.

    There are possibilities that MH may cancel some of their (or remaining European routes except LHR) which UL may benefit as MH will use CMB and the partnership with UL through Oneworld to serve Europe via UL's metal.

    From 2015, Malaysia Airlines may cancel several destinations, according to http://www.malaysia-chronicle.com/in...#ixzz3GhWWNm5d. AirAsia X will be a beneficiary of MAS' restructuring, especially for its Australian and Chinese routes," he noted. -Sundaily.

    Cathay Pacific reveals new-look brand
    http://www.ausbt.com.au/cathay-pacif...n=home-flipper

    I think the previous livery is much better. It's sad to hear they are changing livery to something that with a very dull look. What do you think?
