About half the 788s (5 of 12) are the prior lie flat config. The standard on iffy routes is show the prior configuration. A decision of specific version on those routes will be deferred until 2 -3 days prior to travel and still might change due system issues.
Worth noting some prefer the prior seats on the 788.
