Seems so, looks like 2 are not flying.

So for Y class, what kind of seat I should expect (new like 380 or old like 772/773)? I was on 773 recently and it was quite old.

Not sure that's a valid question as the 772 Y class was refitted within the last 2-3 years and yes, that would be the same as the 747 Y class I think. The 773 Y class might be slightly different but all have AVOD so nothing in it really.

I found 772 and some of the (old) 773 have an "older" remote control compare to 773-ER and A380

What's the 747 like on the BKK - HKG route in Y. Are the seats retorfitted? Wondering if it's worth adding a few hours to my journey to fly on the 747 again.

BOM-BKK is being operated by a 744 but not selling F. Is there any way to improve odds of getting an F seat?
