After doing some playing around with a 757 configuration at MSY, it turns out the B752 is capable of doing MSY to LHR if you use all the business class seats you can configure it with.

Just thought I’d mention it in case people didn’t know, the A21NX can’t do this no matter what the configuration is, so the B752 currently has a range advantage.

And yet the devs disabled B752 flights from IAD to Europe that actually occur (such as United to DUB) lol. But the A21N is available on the route :joy:

That’s something I’ve never understood, except the Icelandair 757. UA 757s are going back to LHR next year from IAD, so I guess it’s eventual remodel might get it added to longer routes.

Which is odd as the A321LR has a longer range then the B757.

You sure you’re not thinking of the A321XLR? I’m positive the A21NX and B752 are near identical in terms of range (give or take).

Definitely the A321LR as that has a range of 4,000nmi, B757-200 has a range of 3,915 nmi and B757-300 is 3,400 nmi, and the XLR is 4,700nmi. So you should be able to do MSY - LHR.

I’m very curious to see what the final livery selection for the 757s looks like, especially the 300 with it not having many operators. The BA one gives me hope we might get some older airlines in the mix, Thomas Cook and Monarch for example would be awesome for Innsbruck!

I kinda wish they were C class. I mentioned it in the other thread but if they were C class I would have so many more 757s

I hope so too, would love all the British holiday airlines included :laughing:. INN might be a bit odd though considering the lack of D gates compared to how they packed them in irl.

A couple of them is better than none when it comes to INN.

The BA livery shown earlier though, that would make a brilliant extra level at LHR, nice to finally see a more recent BA special livery.

Agreed. Will make me go back and spend some more time at INN. Left as soon as I unlocked Bari and have only been back for special liveries. And regarding the BA, I hope this is a sign of more to come because we will be spoiled rotten if so.

Only one solution for that :relieved_face:

Maybe to fix this they could add more stands for D planes using stand blockage like at BRI. However I see why they wouldnt do that because at the end of the day its the first airport and the only want to give players a small taste of big aircraft

Sounds interesting, Condor 753s will be brilliant for LEJ and BRI. I do wonder if the Wir Lieben Fliegen livery is going to be there as an event.

Hopefully we can also get the 752 as an event livery or something
