DL has pledged that all TPAC flights will be lie-flat-configured from June 2013 (but no, that doesn't apply to US-48 to HI or to intra-Asia flights).
Well they are actually leaving 10/31 and they specifically booked on DL just for the 744. They were gonna book with UA and I told them no don't UA's 744s are junk. (They are traveling Y hence why I told them UAs 744s are junk)
