Doesn't seem to be a pattern to it, but it's only because EK is one aircraft short in the 77W sub-fleet they regularly use on this route (old F, but new J).
I wouldn't count on it, just seems like pure luck whether you have a last minute swap on the day of your flight.
Thank you for that information.... At least I should get to experience the new J product, while Mrs B will have to suffer with the old F... if we end up with the new F, I'll be sure to go buy a lotto ticket upon our return.
