Welcome to Flyertalk Tom87, and in particular we need to welcome you to the BA forum, we're very happy to have you here and I hope that we will see more of you. Thanks for that information, it's certainly an improvement on the old 777s though it wasn't so long a go they could fill jumbos to Cairo.

Different styles to both. And yes, there is AVOD. No particularly good seats in Y on those aircraft except perhaps the exit row (20).

It doesn't surprise me to be honest... a subfleet of 5 is pretty small, and the 767s are on their way out and need "replacing"...
The question is, what is to happen to BEY/AMM? I've heard certain rumours of 787/777, any truth? It would be commercial suicide to move to a shorthaul config on those routes!
