All 777/300ER (with 3 classes) delivered since December 2011 have Y310.
^ Good info.

This also is consistent with the trend of EK deploying their A380s to those North American routes as capacity justifies it rather than getting more/newer 77Ws with crew rest.

So older ICE Widescreen models for the time being...
