The ghetto birds are the 2 cabin birds that are flying on hub-to-hub domestic routes and the Hawaii routes. All 2-class domestic PMUA 763s will be converted with 30 C seats in Business [PMCO BF ones] along with winglets and some other interior enhancements. They just began converting one of the ghetto birds to international configuration [will be nearly identicial as the upgraded 764 layout] and they will be deployed on international routes. I am assuming those birds will probably be deployed on routes to South America and Europe.

So far, we know that at one point the following routes will get the converted 763s [not sure if it is permanent or not]:

IAD-CDG
ORD-AMS
EWR-IST
EWR-GVA
