My outbound is October 29th of course, haha. Will enjoy the old seat one more time as well.
Love the October 29th flight! You might get lucky and get an updated aircraft.
My ORD-NRT and NRT-ORD flights in November just had aircraft changes, but I’m in Premium Economy. (The PE seat numbers don’t change between the old and new configs.) At least I’ll get a bigger tv monitor!
I might try to buy a business upgrade at the gate. I’ve never done that before, and they might only allow it if PE is overbooked. I paid cash for my tix. I’m pretty sure you can’t upgrade award tickets.
It will be nice to see the room for the first time! All of my flights to date have been the old config.
