However, if equipment changes are very likely, it really doesn't matter much.
Is the 744 a regular on the BKK-HKG route? CX web says 2-3 times a week, but does itactually change around that much ?
In my opinion you will be lucky to get coffin biz class in BKK-HKG. I flew BKK-HKG/HKG-BKK many time. The aircraft is rather old, so it is old biz class, on B773 or B772 or old A333. Try to grab A343 or B744 for newer biz class at least with AVOID.
