While you're expecting SQ to do that (great idea) why not have QR, EY, and EK do the same.

Nah. No need for aircraft then. Or for that matter even flying. עתידה ארץ ישראל שתתפשט בכל הארצות.

For those of us losers that don’t know the difference between plane types, what does that mean for us as consumers? Will the A-350 have first class options? Thanks for posting this!

No first class on either.

A359 has 38 J, 28 Y+ and 214 Y seats.
A351 has 46 J, 32 Y+ and 256 Y seats.

Hopefully that translates into some award availability.

If I read the link you posted correctly this is only for the month of October, and the Tuesday flights are the ones that will be A359. Any idea why this is?

That might be for those that are a little short on אמונה ובטחון. 

Don't forget we also have וארו עם ענני שמיא. But since עתידה שתתפשט it's all domestic travel.

In that case there may be periods when we need planes.

The rash of the shul where I grew up, who was such a kalte litvak he would make goose bay seem warm, gave a whole shiur about each of the stages based on the different language of the gemara. ימות המשיח, לעתיד לבא, עולם הבא

Is Cathay Pacific supposed to show up on AA.com mileage search?
