The only other 77W route I been on was DFW-HKG, but that was a disaster. What are past experiences like for LHR on the 77W?
One month is about my cutoff for LAX-LHR-LAX. I was at 3.5 weeks and was the last EXP cleared at the gate. I was at 4 weeks and was not going to make the cut but got lucky. Having said that, those two flights look very open- in MCE, in J and in F.

I predict you will clear in the week before, maybe day 4-5 out.
