Reason I ask is that I am on QF26 (LAX-AKL-MEL) in Business in November which is currently scheduled as a 747-400, and I read that sometimes this flight is a 3 class aircraft used as a 2 class, and sometimes an A330, and sometimes a 747-300. What's the deal, why so many changes on this flight? And, if it's a 747-300 does that mean I don't get the Skybed? Thanks.
No. 743s feature Dreamtime seats.
I suspect the change in aircraft is likely due to late arrival of A380 aircraft. QF have stated on several occasions that they will operate MEL-LAX services with the A380 as the first proper commercial service with the new aircraft.
QF have a real shortage of aircraft at the moment so expect these sorts of aircraft swaps frequently until new aircraft come on stream.
