Word on the street is that on the LGW/MAN fleet the old J seats will not be replaced but given a 'deep clean' (so a wipe down with a damp rag) and the only change will be to have the new IFE added.

The first A330 with the new J seats is due to have it's first flight on the 21st April on the JFK route. This new seat will be rolled out onto the LHR fleet over the next three years.
