Added the planes which have WiFi to the Wiki. Five of them already, some of them still with the old cabin.
I am fairly certain F-GZCC is the one that is currently being refurbished in CDG, it hasn't flown since May 5th. Also F-GZCK has been flown to Bordeaux a few days ago. That may be for a new cabin, not sure though, we can check in the next couple of days whether she'll be flying.

It seems like my trip to BLR will have the old A330 on the way down but the new cabin on the way back. Thought it was supposed to transition earlier this summer, but at least I'll get it for the crappier overnight flight.

Just flew SEA-CDG on F-GZCI. Gorgeous retrofit! My only issue is the loss of the bathroom up front. The single bathroom for all J class saw a lot of folks waiting around in the galley. But the loo does have a lovely window! On a side note, do not get the orecchiette - yikes. The absolute worst meal I have EVER had on a plane (economy or business) but luckily they swapped it out for the cod which was delish even if it as cod!

IAD-CDG in November is showing an A330 with the new configuration instead of an A380. I hope they keep it as I am not looking forward to an A380 in any cabin (other than P, which I am not flying of course 
)

The A330 is a prologation of the AF26/27 which was seasonal operated currently/traditionally by a 772. So they are keeping the 2nd flight thru the winter season and the A330 replaces the 772.

so far, only 3 A330s have been refurbished ?
