On the maps of where it can fly, are they using some super advanced model to give the 'odd' shapes (for example the delhi one, which is totally not just a circle projected onto the globe and then reprojected onto a map)?

Or is it just an artist impression who was given a list of cities and has drawn a dotted line around them?




I wondered from your question whether it was accounting for ETOPS requirements but it doesn't look like it.

Seems to be the latter, some cities aren't even in the right place (London is set in french Brittany, Rome seems to be adrift in the Thyrrenian sea).
