Not too surprised that the 787-10s, with their shorter range, are remaining more high-density --- that is, until BR gets the rumored increased gross-weight / longer ranged 787-10 version.
Also wonder whether BR's existing 787-9s will be refitted with Premium Economy...
Do you know if BR will be reverting to a 787-10 for the YVR route? I'm booked on a flight in November and it's a 77W.
