QR8 Demoted from 787 to 777
"My Flights" (great great iPhone app that watches for ticket changes) advised me this morning that my reservation on QR8 had been dropped from a 787 to a 777. Looking at their site looks like 787's aren't coming to London for much longer to make way for the A380 on the 10th of October.
Does mean my 787 on the 9th is now a 777 ... wonder if i can get some of the higher premium flight money back...

Stupidly, I have booked J again for ZRH later this week. . .
In all seriousness, a downgrade to a 777 is not so bad. It's a pretty nice product. Inferior to the 787, yes, but still a step up from the A330/340 in J.
