There's a very big fleet of 77WRs and there is frequently spare capacity available during the day, where one aircraft might arrive at dawn but not head anywhere until late afternoon. Long haul planes are generally at their busiest from midnight until dawn.

It looks like SQ318/319 got SWJ, a 77WR. I actually reported initially that during this week, Wednesday would be the day it gets a 77WN (iCargo indicated SWV was supposed to fly today's route as 3-class).
It looks like it went daily 77WR daily as of last Thursday rather than my initial reporting via EF. SWV doesn't seem to be flying anywhere so far, so I'm not sure if this means 3 77W at a time now, it could be maintenance

Looks like I was wrong, as I expected. SWV is back as 237/338, probably the last route to have a 77WN before the next retrofit occurs. That said, we've seen some interesting swaps occur over the last few days:
Tue/Wed night (SIN time) - MEL (237/238) got a 77WR both days, SNB and SWK, which I thought was either SWV undergoing some maintenance or the Wednesday flight of LHR having a 77WN before it goes daily 77WR.
Today, the only two swaps that occured are BOM (424/423) which got an A380 (SKI) and PVG (836/825) which got a 773 (SYL) instead of a 77W
Also on Tuesday, SQ806/801 got a 773 after a long while of going 77WR, 9V-SYJ. SWW hasn't gone anywhere so far, so i can still therefore conclude it's in for a 77WR conversion. That said, SWY is approaching its 4th week so definitely a retrofit AFAIK. Just some updates I've observed.Last edited by SQfanatic; 15 September 2017, 11:42 AM.

Originally posted by SQ228 View PostThis was scheduled. SQ424/3 (BOM) gets an A380 on 14, 17 & 18 SEP, and then daily from 01OCT. There are some very random and/or complex A380 movements scheduled between now and then end of the year, so I find it handy to keep a copy of the current PDF timetable on file for reference.

Originally posted by SQkid View Post9V-SWI is has been operating on SQ638/637 for quite a while is now serving SQ424/423 and it seems like SWV is set to fly SQ638/637. First time in a while we saw a 77WN on SQ638/637.
As a consequence of the following you mentioned here are my observations:
On the day SQ638/637 have received a 77WN, SQ237/238 have gotten a 77WR (Tuesday it got SWP, Thursday it got SWB). Again, these things do happen, but then again we don't have a solid day SQ237/238 will go daily 77WR yet.
Some routes like PVG (836/825) and HND (634/635) have been a mix of the 773 and 77W, have been served by the Star Alliance livery, 9V-SYL.
That said, SWW and SWY are still out, with SWY approaching week 5 and SWW approaching week 3. My guess is SWY is due to hatch next weekend, close to the start of October.

Originally posted by SQfanatic View PostAfter your post of SWI doing BOM (424/423) on the day and time of your posting, after its (delayed) arrival in SIN, so far it hasn't made other flights since. I'm speculating it's possibly undergoing 77WR retrofitting. I have a feeling they'll go back to the 10 year old 77Ws SWG and SWI now and convert to a 77WR and after that, the younger ones, plus we have SWV, the last and remaining 77WN left.

Originally posted by SQkid View PostSWI is scheduled to fly as SQ634/635 on 23 SEPT(SAT). So I guess SQ still sticks to a maximum of 2 77W out of service for refitting.
