Qantas A330-200 cabin refurbishments

[TheInsider]

VH-EBK now at 12 days in BNE so the next possible candidate.

Nah, EBK won't be getting any refit.

EBG/EBL and EBM-EBV only.

First one should be EBQ from around September to December, some engineers have advised. But who knows, it's Qantas, probably another delay somewhere.

Yep. Back flying as of last Fri.

Any reason for the delayed start?

I don't know. Assuming it's the whole parts and suppliers having issues with their delays.

I flew on EBA yesterday and the J cabin seemed fresher than I recall it being, and definitely in better shape than EBG which I was on a few weeks ago. Lighting strips above the windows seem to have been replaced and the carpets/J cabin furniture seemed a tad better. The seat mechanics also seemed to be operating more smoothly and quietly than other aircraft I've been on recently.

It came back very recently from having heavy maintenance done on it in Singapore, which may have involved stripping the cabin down and doing a deep clean and repairs, which may be why everything looks fresher.

Only a year late not bad...
