Looks like G-VEII is going into service today and heading to JFK as the VS9.

The VS9/10 route looks to be an A339 route now as I'm also on the VS9 next month and that's also showing as an A339.

The next A339 due for delivery in May (MSN 2061) will be G-VSRB (Ruby Rebel). More details can be found here.

VS confirmed via twitter today that they already received it. Not sure how reliable it is is though.

LOL, that's Twitter (or X or what ever it's called now) for you! Refer them to their own press release as it's mentioned there as well:


.....The airline’s fifth Airbus A330neo, which will enter service from May,.....


Another way to check is by looking up the A/C registration using the online CAA G-INFO database search. No sign of VSRB in there yet. A/C only get added to that database on or around their date of delivery.

G-VSRB hasn’t done any test flights yet so is likely around 4-5 weeks away from delivery and will probably be delivered around the same time as G-VELJ, which has recently been painted and sports the Oscar flying icon.
