Looking at some of the upcoming flights for NZ77 and NZ78, it looks like they are running 777?

It thought they had switched back to 787 already?

My flight in early Jan TPE-AKL is standard config 77W.

So, itll be partly seasonal, and partly fleet availability & utilisation.

TPE needs the 77W particularly in Jan / Feb due to the amount of fresh cargo that we ship there.
