Also, what are the chances my 772 has the new seats in August? I’m not too worried about the Dec return flight but the flight out seems like it could go either way at this point, the seat maps have been switching around (and I know this far out those don’t indicate anything). FWIW, the girl I talked to at CO “guaranteed” my flight would have lie-flats, but I’m not sure how she can say that, as I haven’t seen anything publicly stating that IAH-FRA would be guaranteed to have lie-flats like they did with LHR flights.
Contrary to popular opinion, the view isn't any better from a business class window than it is from coach.
Having just flown into Frankfurt, I can concur that the right side was a good view.
As far as flat beds, it's anyone's guess.
But don't be too sure about that 777 flight anyhow- it's been a 764 during winter for years, I think, as it is right now, and while it's planned to be a 777, only time will tell whether it stays that way through the off season.
