That livery looks fantastic on the 787. Good for them. I wonder if ANZ are disappointed they won't be first. It's the perfect route for a 787 too. Just the right size passenger load no doubt, & more than enough range.
One thing that can be said , even when i looked at an old Chinese 747 parked in Asia /Oz they looked great and kept with tradition and look superb , the old cheat lines and detail ... stuck to there guns as far as livery was concerned !
