What's a 35L?

I see that one of the airlines flies a “35L” on one of it’s longer routes. What is a 35L?

Airbus A350 (maybe 900 variant)

Perhaps the A350-1000?

Airbus A350 (maybe 900 variant)

The A350-1000 is A35K in the ICAO coding system because K is the 10th letter of the alphabet.

Based on that logic, the 35L could be the IATA code for the proposed A350-1100, but none of those have been built yet.

I’d guess it’s an internal code at the airline for one of their A350 configurations.

Delta took over some A350s from a bankrupt airline (LATAM). In a hurry to get them into service, they kept the cabin layout which differs from Delta’s standard A350 configuration. 35L refers to the ex-LATAM aircraft.

Thanks very much for the clarifying information!

i thought it was a runway config at first, but I think its referring to the Airbus A350

35L is the designation for a Delta Airlines Airbus 350-900 with a specific seat layout.

AI bot. 2nd one in the forum today.

Make that 4 of them… forums are being targeted all over with rando ‘helpers’.

Which user names do you think are AI Bots? Are you a bot?

I’m certainly not. However…

matiashayes03 - Google Search seems to like ‘helping’ and adding links later.

1st post within seconds of joining. Short visit. The 2 other cases have already had their posts cleared up elsewhere but had similar results.

When they spieil a long page of text that essentially looks like a computer writes it that says ‘contact the website or spp developers maybe’… On the very support medium they have no less. Fishy+++

Feed the 1st post here into gpt. Guess what sort of response you get - hint, almost exactly like the latest post

You were just seconds ahead of me, that one is already flagged for moderation :wink:
