The relative sub-fleets are smaller hence they will be done in the next 6-8 months and reduce the level of configurations and thus significantly improve fleet flexibility. There are 10x 3-class 77Ws with deep reclining J seats and thus refurbishment of this will take over a year. These aircraft will probably be done in 2011.
