BTW, induction of Boeing 777 (AP-BMS) may also enable PIA to easily start sending its Boeing 777s abroad one by one for installation of new Business and Economy Class seats with new IFE after the end of post-Hajj flights operation.

PIA has no more economy plus any more on any aircraft.
Would not make sense in selling 40 economy plus seats on this aircraft, either convert the full front section with 35 club seats or put in the economy seats.
Though 2-4-2 economy plus is a great layout.

I like this minimal design. Somehow the stipe never grew on me. I think this design is economical for PIA's budget. A marketing addition could be to paint belly with PAKISTAN but only if they make it consistent across fleet.Abbas Ali wrote: ↑Sun Aug 06, 2017 10:41 am Boeing 777-3Q8ER registration AP-BMS approaching London-Heathrow Airport on its first international flight for PIA as PK-757 from Lahore on August 5.
