Update sent on Express First Class installations!

So apparently the F cabins are being installed now. Until they are complete, there will be coach-only service on all Express flights, so basically you'll get a bigger seat but no free drinkies and no actual upgrades; pick a potentially F seat when you do your seat assignments, and if it's an F-equipped plane, you've got the F seat. I'm sure there will be plenty of annoyance over that (why should a late-booking CP not get the big comfy chair just because 5 Silvers booked first) but with the number of affected planes, which I assume can be swapped with eachother pretty regularly, I guess that's the only coherent way to handle things.

Anyway I'm just glad to see F finally being built out on these planes so I can live with the way they're doing it!
