MEL is scheduled to get 77WN on 29MAR, but I've worked out that this has nothing to do with the arrival of new craft. At this time, NRT goes from 77WN to A380. The A380 comes off AKL (that didn't last long!) and they presumably get the standard 77W off MEL, and MEL gets the 77WN off NRT.
The extra 77WNs seem to be headed for HKG/SFO and the second LHR 77W flight pair (SQ306/5).
So far we've seen AMS upgraded to 77W as well as a flight pair to MNL. I'm wondering where else this now much larger pool of standard 77Ws is going to start servicing, now that so many previous flights have been upgraded to the 77WN.

the J class to AMS is most likely the retrofitted 772 anyway if the 77W is given up. So there is no downgrade
If you are in F, then I guess you can ask them to reroute you through the Suites routes like CDG with waiver of miles top up to the more expensive european zone.

Correction: already back to 77WN. A380 rotation cancelled.............
16 July through 9 September, 638 and 637 are once again -- for a while -- to be performed by A380s.
A lot of this later assignment juggling has to do with the PEY refits, and the assignment of the first of those frames from early August......................Last edited by Bitterroot; 22 March 2015, 01:38 AM.

Originally posted by Durian View PostI'm in F and it shows a 77W at the time of booking. I guess if the there is an aircraft swap to the spacebed 772, I'll be rerouted through somewhere else in Europe as those have not first class ?
I think this time the AMS upgrade to 77W is likely to last given they now have so many more 77W to utilise. Previous upgrades (there have been so many!) seemed to have stretched the previously smaller 77W pool just a bit too far.
