[The Rok]

Not that many here will take note or care but this is a positive move from one of the best airlines in the world, if you live in the EU!

Quite possibly an early April fool's day joke?

Always will have toilets. The question is whether the toilets will have a credit card swipe facility to allow them to be accessed.

Sure! & charged at £5 per 3 minute blocks & the pre/post pay toilet paper option. :mrgreen:

£1 or £2 depending on what you do. Then the per square payment plan to finish up.

Maybe you could use your boarding pass instead of toilet paper and save yourself some money?

200 Jets delivered in 3 year period (2015 to 2017).

a) What's the current production rate of the 737?
b) where did 60-70 production slots per year suddenly come from?
