So why were you "watching the seatmap like a hawk since booking" if you were under the impression the conversions were complete?
(Not accusatory, just curious. Paranoia is well-founded when it comes to airlines, I suppose.)

It boils down to this: F to Hawaii costs way less a lot of the time than C to Europe, and AA is committing to lie-flat to Europe to be on par with BA, AB and IB. They have made no such commitment for Hawaii.
So if anyone's going to get the short end of the stick on a 763 equipment swap, it's going to be the Hawaii pax, not Europe pax.
