According to www.thebasource.com there are 4 out of the 28 747 Hi-J's which have 185 Y seats. The remaining 24 Hi-J's have 177 Y seats.

Economy rows on the 185 Y configurations have 16 DEFG seats which go up to row 55 where as the others only go up to 14 rows ending at row 53.

The 4 with 185 Y are G-CIVF, G-CIVG, G-CIVH (all with NF) and G-CIVI, the latter of which I believe is in for the NF refit.

So I was checking my First flight on expedia.com from MRU-LHR on the 23rd Dec which is up to row 55.

So if you do a dummy Y booking in expedia and it has row 54 and 55 on the seatmap I think you are gauranteed the NF product.

I just thought this may be handy to know as there are quite a few queries re will my 747 flight have NF etc

Perhaps FTDASHBOARD can confirm this? I had a look through this thread and can't see any mention of the above.
