There has been a public commitment for some time now from CO that all 777 flights from LHR will feature the new flatbed configuration from 1 June.

Recently when looking at the seat maps, it appears that outbound flights in June are shown with the old configuration, whilst inbound ones are shown with the new. I know that the maps are not to be fully trusted, but this is a notable recent difference.

The seat installation process section of co.com has not been updated for over a week (it has been changed weekly of late) and still only shows 10 out of 20 tail numbers having been converted.

The 'Tracking 777s with Flat Beds' thread on FT has not been as active as it was either.

Anyone have an insight into how realistic it is that all 777s touching LHR will have the new seats from next Tuesday ?
I'm hoping to try the new lay flats in August for my LHR flight.
