PAL has 11 777s?

I think what they did not include here was that PAL returned too many widebodies that it is now catching up in terms of flight delays, cancellations, service, and reputation.

Maybe someone would be knowledgeable but for a C11 to get the nod, was it necessary to return that much widebodies? I never expected too that they would return 4, I was expecting only 2 A350s would be returned.

Could be them adding B77W to make-up for the loss aircraft? I'm more concerned with the eariler B777 (7777 and 7772) who's cabin interiors are dated now those PAL have plans to refurbished them with new seats?!

As for the A350-900 I've commented they sould have kept 3504 as a bake-up in case one undergos maintenence well its to late for that now will have to wait until 2026 to get them back! Or converted the option for 6 A350 to firm orders!
