This is a long update which may require some extensive editing on my part, so please bear with me. It's updates like these that make me glad this list is a sticky thread. At any rate, here are the changes I have made to the list: link |

Looks like the 787 are getting back in good shape then!
Couple of questions I want to ask about Heathrow;
How many more 787 operators are expecting to fly to LHR by end of this year? Next year?
When are BA receiving their 787 and where will they fly it to?
Have they announced any routes?

When are BA receiving their 787 and where will they fly it to? Have they announced any routes? 1. I can't think of any more this year aside from BA. Next year I'm thinking Kenya Airways, Aeromexico, and Air Canada are good contenders. 2-3. BA should be receiving their first one next month from what I've heard. They haven't officially announced any routes (otherwise I'd be all over it!) but some rumors say EWR, IAD, YYC and YYZ. It's just a matter of when they will start their routes, or will they do something like their upcoming A380s. |

Thanks for your information! Much appreciated  Well according to airlineroute.net, looks like Kenya airways are planning to use the 777-300 on NBO-LHR-NBO route by November. Operating 2x weekly. It would be great if LHR see's mix of 787 and 777-300 operating by Kenya airways! airlineroute.net/2013/04/03/kq-77w-update1/ |

Qatar is a likely LHR operator, and one of their daily DOH-LHR rotation was operated with 787 before the battery issues

I know one 787 operator is operating to LHR at the moment and that's Qatar.
I think from tomorrow AI will fly the 787 to LHR on its Delhi route. Flying daily AI115/AI116. Next month on the 11th June United Airlines will start their 787 to LHR and on the 16th Ethiopian airlines
So that's 3 airlines operating at T4; QR AI UA and at T3 one airline; ET.. Looking good!

And BA from T5 within the next couple of months! Right, they will operated T5. I think they will received their first 787 to be delivery sometime in between July or August. I am not quite sure. |
