Does anyone know if the retrofit with the new biz class seats has started or not ?
Will they install the new biz seats of the 777-200 or those of the 777-200ER ?
Any idea when the retrofit is supposed to be completed.

Not too sure if they have started yet. But based on my last 2 trips recently(one from KIX and another from NRT), they are still using the 773 with the old style business class seats.
The 773 is planned to be like 772ER, including AVOD in Y. I don't know exactly when it will start but should begin in 2007.
From what I heard recently, the retrofit will begin in mid-2007 so we must endure the current 773 for at least 12 months from now until all 6 of them are retrofitted.

Here we are one year after that ,and only 2 out of 6 777-300 have been retrofitted.
Not surprised though. This is TG after all.

I'm not worried. After all six have finally been converted, on my next flight on which I am scheduled to fly on one, TG will substitute an AB6 at the last minute anyway.
