I seem to remember there were 6 A333 based in MUC during the summer months and it's quite possible that all 6 A333 based in MUC will have new C.
Remember also that another new A333 with new F and C is due to be delivered at the end of February and at least one A333 is currently in retrofit.
Yep, there is no MUC-RUH direct flight - must have plugged in FRA or something.
But for the other seven flights, all are definitely scheduled for A333's on my day of travel.
Regardless, it looks there will be enough A333's with new C in service to cover all assigned MUC summer routes, assuming LH bases the retrofit aircraft there first. The worst case scenario would be that they don't, but I would still have a 5/7 shot of new C anyways. If that happens, hopefully each A333 won't be assigned to particular routes. With YVR-MUC being seasonal, I'm nervous I'd be out of luck.
