I'm trying to book an upgrade with points but when I click on services by flight it shows a 777-300ER 3class!

My questions are-

1- does this mean that there will be less business upgrade availability?

2- will they still be lie-flat seats, or are they likely to replace with an older aircraft?

I note that there is no availability for 1st class to purchase on this flight so this suggests that this could change back to a 2class?
FYI seat guru also shows this flight as a 3class.

Any info gladly appreciated.
When is the date of this flight? They might be operating as 3 class, but only sell as 2 class in case it gets switched back. I can tell you if it's lie flats if you give me the date. This shouldn't make a difference of how many J seats are available to Upgrade. Call skywards and ask them if its available for your flight. Remember there needs to be D class availability for a mileage upgrade into business class.
