Anything can happen. Yesterday, the flight 988 from FRA to IAD was unexpectedly switched to a reconfigured 772 from the three class 772. Then, it was cancelled due to aircraft maintenance. The switch made an unhappy FTer that posted about it on another thread. I guess the cancellation made many more passengers unhappy but we did not hear about that. Although maybe they get the European compensation and some passengers may be less unhappy.
