Well done CX. While reconfiguring 330s for consistency, they’re introducing a new Regional First. What about existing Regional (Real) First like that on existing 548/549? Switch to new Regional First and to be served with HY* only?
Integrating all the information in this thread, perhaps CX is going for:
1. Premium heavy (existing regional) — intelligent misuse, like NRT/SIN etc. which have always been getting 350/77W same as now
2. Premium heavy (new regional) — B-HY*, like PEK/PVG same as when KA existed
3. Leisure — 330s with reconfigured 24J, like DPS/KUL/NGO, mixed with 32Q when needed
4. Others — 330s with reconfigured 24J, like BKK/ICN/TPE mixed with 773 with 42J when needed
