By the time either a 339, 359 or 781 will enter the EK fleet, I don't think there actually will be that many of this "smaller" aircraft to replace as they all seems to be leaving the fleet at a steady pace That is true - we are speaking about delivery 2018 and later and those are long gone by then..... So they will start new routes with 773

This is in reference to this post by Jkkw. It's quite early and I think the final rendering of how it will eventually look like is still being worked out. So, like the early A350XWB renderings, we are going to see several iterations as we go on. But for starters, here are two pictures to compare the current A330 with the new neo. The most obvious differences are the wingtips and the larger size of the engines. Also note the reduced size of the flap track fairings on the neo - an aerodynamics tweak. Does anyone see anything else? We'll see if the black cockpit window frame sticks in future renderings. I don't mind it. Here are a few more renderings of the -800 with the black cockpit window frames. Interestingly, the -900 renderings which appeared on the photo gallery at the same time does not have the black frames. pic 1, pic 2, pic 3, pic 4
