BMI seating config?

Anyone know what BMI's seating plan is on transatlantic flights? i.e. how many buisness seats, Pe seats and econ seats?
The seat plan web sites don't have BMI listed

it's going to depend on which route as BMI are starting to use alot of wet leased aircraft now [:(] rather than their own Airbus's

A down payment on a boat? [:o)]

Don't be silly. That's called a sinking fund payment on a floating charge.

Now where to put my 500th posting?

Wet leasing is where an airline uses another airlines A/C but uses their own crews. Exapmle with BMI been the MAN>IAD route where BMI use an Icelandic Air B757 (well until this route finishes on Oct 31)

The old VS MAN B742 was also wet leased from Air Atlanta (even though is was in full VS colours)

There is also dry leasing too - but not sure what the difference is.

Well I may stand corrected but when I rent an aircraft (Cessna 172, etc.) I rent them "wet" (even when it is hot out).

The term wet refers to the fact that the rental price includes fuel; normally up to a set price.

So the C172 at $125.00 a hour includes all cost (fuel, oil, etc.)

Definition of wet leasing

Just let me get my a.net cap...

..right:

Wet leasing: as said, leasing an airframe, crew, insurance, planning, ops,etc...

Damp Leasing: Leasing an aircraft and using their flight deck but your cabin crew. i.e. BMI 757 has Icelandic pilots and Bmi cabin people.

Dry leasing: Just leasing the airframe but using your crews, ops, etc....

Just to add to what SBA has pointed out, there's the one final addition:

Wet = Fuel included in lease
Damp = Fuel included in lease
Dry = Fuel not included in lease

I have a feeling that the BMI arrangement for Las Vegas is not actually going to be a wet lease (if we use the IAD example from earlier this year, anyway) as they use their own cabin crew onboard.

Hi,

On the bmi A330's

Business 2-2-2

PE/Economy 2-2-2

On a lot of 767's economy is 2-3-2 ( business is 2-2-2). however on some air Canada's 767's business is 2-2-1.
