A330 sin-bne-sin
Hi all,
What proportion of the A330 fleet now have the new J cabin? Looking to fly A330 SIN-BNE-SIN in October/November. For the dates I am looking Expert Flyer suggests both flights are in the new config. What are the chances of a swap?
Thanks in advance

The Shanghai flight yesterday was scheduled for a new plane all of last week and then got pulled just a couple days before the flight. So there's few guarantees.

Thanks for that. I also found the flight tracker at QANTAS SOURCE and from what I can gather the 28J/269Y is the refurb and the 30J/267Y is the old style. Is that right?
If it is, it looks like recently SIN-BNE has been refurb 60% of the time.
Fingers crossed I suppose

60% sounds about right at the moment.

The seat maps at qantas.com.au suggest that VH-QPA, B, C, D & I are done, with QPE, F, G, H & J remaining to be done. So 50% done, but some preference given to the SIN route perhaps.
