I just received an email from ANA for NH11 on 10/30, but looking at my reservation, I don't see any changes. Scared me as I thought it was changing to a 789 with J-only like other routes seem to be going, but I still am on a 77W and I still have my chosen F seat. Any ideas on what kind of change would this signify with the new schedule?

The Suite is, to say the least a "Sweet" ride. But put a blanket under your behind as it is a very poorly padded seat after 10-12 hours. Other than that it is an absolutely magnificent experience.

Yeah this news made my night and thanks for the tip. I had a flight Jan 2020 on NH182 (A380 from NRT-HNL) but changed it when a flight direct from HND-SFO opened up. Was always disappointed I didn't take A380 F seat with the new suite.

With SFO routes still being the 787 on the schedule it's looking like that really is what's going to operate it for some time. Seems odd that it recently went back to 777 and now is going to be 787 again. Pre-COVID they had just recently expanded with the SFO-HND route and both SFO flights were 777 plus the 787 out of SJC. I wonder exactly what the rationale is now with it looking like Japan will be truly open in the not-too-distant future.
JAL also has SFO-HND on 777 only 3x a week plus daily 787 to NRT, so maybe the demand is just not there right now.

Odd that NH seems to have loaded equipment changes for the first part of the winter schedule, but not the entire schedule. For example, NH11 on 10/30 has been updated to the new 77W per NH's announcement. The same flight in mid-January is still showing the old 77W, and NH105/106 in mid-January is still showing the 789. (NH announced both routes would be getting the new 77W.)

I'm guessing if your seat number matches exactly in the new configuration then you will be assigned those seats.
