Looks like securing F awards to/from NA will be more and more challenging as the downsizing of aircraft for these routes reduces seat capacity from 12 to 9 to 6.
Bummer. I hope they keep 873 74A, I really think F is superior on the 747 vs 77A. Any idea where they're re-routing the extra 74A? If they eventually downsize CX873 to 77A as well, they'll have 1-2 extra 74As in the fleet and possibly can give more dedicated service to one or two locations (instead of always being EQV).
