Finnair could be the first to operate Airbus A350 service to the U.S. if plans to fly an A350-900 to New York JFK before the end of 2015 are realized.
   FlightGlobal reports “discussions on possible start dates are ongoing between the carrier and JFK officials, with a view to beginning services in December, according Rikke Munk Christensen, Finnair's head of traffic planning, at World Routes 2015 in Durban.”
   “She declines to say definitively that the flights will begin before the end of the year, saying only that more details will be available in two to three weeks,” FlightGlobal said.
   The first Finnair A350 will be delivered in Toulouse, France, on October 7.
