KLM md-11 and WBC
I've been reading quite alot about how KLM is retrofitting all their
B744/md-11's to bring them up to the same cabin level as their B777/A330 fleet. I'm interested about this as I'll be flying WBC from AMS-SFO on the 14th Dec this year and as far as I'm aware, its the MD-11. Does anyone know if the retrofit will include the new style WBC for the MD-11? and will all their MD-11's get the makeover before DEC? Also what about their IFE? will that get an upgrade in this retrofit too?

Yes I am intertested also, flying EWR-AMS on an MD11 in coach. Will there be new IFE and individual screens and programs or will it be the 12/16 screens per coach?
Also I am confused over the coach seating Air Reveiw website says "Economy seats are in the unique 2-4-3 pattern".
But Seatguru shows 3-3-3 - did it change with the upgrades?

I hope your flights was good - which configuration did you see onboard?
The Flying Blue board might have been a better place for this question, as it deals with KL and AF topics.
