So, this is based on my original 'hijack' quesiton above... but I don't think I am quite so worried about the specific plane at the moment.
I don't tend to note the specific plane I am on, so it always becomes a surprise to me when I get on the next one.
I am flying LGW to UVF. (Last summer I flew back from costa rica to LGW and was in one very tatty old plane - so much so, got 45,000 avois by way of apology)
My original worry was that I was going to get a tired 777 again (pre-refurb) - but I was looking on the refurb thread and it says that all 777s from LGW have now been refurbed, so the plane should be half decent with reasonable IFE (Are they all the same now)?
I am flying in CW, I know from MMB I am flying in a 3 class plane (4 rows of CW). I know it's still the old style CW seat, but are these 'new' old seats, or are they old old seats, did they change the IFE in these / have they got USB / charging capabilities?
With the reduction in CW seating, is the service any better / worse from havng fewer seats?
Where is the exit from the plane, in front of Row1, or behind Row4?
