Aren't we lucky G-VXLG that we live to fly another day?
Look out for me as N483MC in Atlas Air livery.

G-VROM will be N481MC
G-VROY will be N482MC

There were some nice photos of you departing Manchester and landing at Tel Aviv on quite a few accounts over on Twitter and Instagram.

I know we are so lucky.
Them a350’s (G-VBOB, G-VLIB, G-VWHY, G-VNVR and G-VELJ) replacing us have got big boots to fill and I don’t think they’ll do it.
Really missing you sis!

When the order was placed in 2016, a figure of up to 410 seats was quoted. Not sure on the exact breakdown, but a reasonable assumption will be a smaller Upper cabin and slightly larger PE and Y cabins...

My prediction is half sized UC cabin. The 744 didn't have enough, but 40 is too much for leisure.

I heard the capacity is 410 which probably means a configuration of: 20C48W342Y which would quite similar to previous leisure configurations.

Yes I think UC and PE will be between exit doors 1 and 2.
If they want to keep the Loft I think they ought to have 16 UC and keep the 56 PE.
How many economy seats could fit into the cabin with all the free space given up by the movement of PE?

Quick note in response to the original message.
I read on Twitter that her new owners have said that Ruby Tuesday is staying in passenger format for a while but will eventually be converted to cargo.
No info on when she will be flying again or a new registration yet.
