I was shocked to see CX uses 773 ( not 74A nor 77A) to fly 870/879
The 773s are equipped with the old model chairs for J class ( took one time 8 years ago) and the seating layout for 773 shows no F class..
What the hell! Why not 77A? The old business class chair on 773 is not good..
Hey relax!! Do an F dummy booking for any dates for 879/0 and you'll see FC being sold. Only one type of 773 has F and that is the 77A which is new not old. The regional 773s don't even have F to begin with and don't have the range to fly nonstop to SFO.
