Any info on this?

Also, will UA leave the former electric barcalounger chairs on the domestic versions or eventually transition to flatbeds? Those westbound EWR/IAD-HNL flights are longer than eastbound flights from NRT to the west coast!
No, there are no plans to install flatbeds on the 4 76H birds. There are plans however to update the premium cabins on the 6 domestic 777s which from what i hear will be a business type seat not flatbed, but a barcolounger presently what's on the 4 76H birds, and whats being removed from the 12 atlantic 764s.
