Shalom and greetings all my pals,

American Airlines is starting new service to NZAA using 787-9P.

Any thoughts??

I do not even know what in the heck the letter P stands for!!!!!

I believe the P stands for premium. It's configured for more premium seating to cater for the "luxury" travel market'.

Thanks for answer. Do you or anyone think this will be profitable for the airline?

There is definitely an increased demand for premium economy seats and a bit of a surge in business travel. With the weird things happening with entry into the USA at the moment I’m not sure how well it will do.
