Question TK 777 to where?

I am trying to find out where TK sends it`s 777? I know that LHR is one destination, but I can`t find anything on their web page considering 777 routes. I would also like to know on which days they operate to which destinations?

Cheers

Do you think in the future they will do it to Tokyo Narita?

Thanks Jetstreamer. I have an upcoming flight in August from NRT and would like to snag a F seat (though it seems these are like hen's teeth when it comes to snagging one as an award seat) still I hear the C seats ain't half bad.

777 to BKK??

Are you sure they are flying 777 to BKK as I have checked various sites and it always shows as A340 hence no F?

I just realised that too when trying to book a flight from SIN to IST departing on 13 June 2009.

It will be quite disappointing if I do not get to fly with the 777 in business class.

The A340 do not have lie flat beds. I only hope all its A340 planes are already been fully reconfigured with lie flat seats at the very least.

Faulty schedule as there are some days in the summer schedule where the 777's are scheduled twice a day.

I thought they have leased three 777 aircrafts.

So I do not really follow the "the scheduled twice a day" part.

Does anyone know whether TK will be using 77w on SIN-IST in March 2010? At present it shows A330. Help?

Operations are as per schedule. Today (22 May) VT-JEE operated the TK1979/1980 IST-LHR rotation, and VT-JED did the TK1991/1992.

Thanks, jp! Does anyone know when TK will start showing the 77Ws past Oct 09? I am trying to book an award surprise anniversary trip for my parents next spring (flexible, late Feb-early April my dates)...
