Changes to Boarding/Disembarking all LHR Flights

Following successful trials, all B747-400 flights arriving into and departing from LHR from 18th September 08 will board and disembark J customers via the L1 door.
This door will be opened first followed by L2.
Once the J cabin is clear, the right hand side of the aircraft will disembark via L1 while the left side disembark via L2.
A few of the 747-400 stands at LHR do not have twin jet bridges, wherever possible these will be avoided.
This procedure will improve the boarding/disembarking experience for our all pax and assist with OTP.
Trials are also being done on the Airbus fleet for this procedure.
