That aside, the plan has clearly changed a bit as IIC hasn't gone in yet. It looks like IIF has taken it's place.
ah sorry. Thought they were going in dates.

I think BA are right to keep pushing on with the 777 Club Suite work. It gives them a time to ‘catch up’, even if it is money they don't want to spend.

After Coronavirus, I assume people won’t be as keen on the old CW configuration as you are fairly open to neighbours. The new suite will enable ‘social distancing’, so people will psychologically feel safer (in Business anyway). So if BA operates with a majority of old CW cabins, people could switch to the competition.

I've just had an equipment change for a flight to Nashville in September (BA223 on the 23rd), and the new aircraft (789) has the old 2-3-2 seating.

Despite the cabin being almost wide open, the BA computer decided to put me and my partner in D and E, centre and aisle of a middle block of 3 seats. How stupid is that.

Still Club Suites on the return flight, for now.

Not that I expect to be going on that trip anyway...

Vaguely recall that when the current (older) CW product was launched; it was first rolled out on the JFK route.

Know that currently CS is available daily to JFK using the refurbished 777s; once more of the fleet have the seats installed; can folk see the LHR/JFK route being marketed as a pure CS product (of course subject to last min equipment changes etc)?

Thinking about taking a CW trip to NYC in Mar/Apr 2020 and keen to maximise my chances of trying the new product.

Was looking at some April dates for next year (Assuming you actually mean 2021 and not 2020), it shows Club Suites on 173 (Hi J 77W), 177 and 113 from LHR. (was looking at the 21st of April).

It would be attractive for BA to do this given competition on the route but it would be quite difficult to deliver.

BA’s plan for CS didn’t have many 4-class aircraft in early on for example, but LHR-JFK has traditionally had F on most flights. It was also served by a lot of 747s which weren’t planned to get CS before retirement.

The current crisis could have thrown all this up in the air though and I’m not sure BA themselves know yet how the pieces will fall.

I hope so, just booked a JFK for March. Currently showing 747 upper deck, happy to swap for CS

Seems to be as up to date as possible - refurbs continuing on through lockdown by the look of it.

Anyone know if Club Suites will return to LHR-DXB at any point? Looks like the A350 gets pulled from the route on 25 Oct and gets replaced by a B747, which seems odd given commentary on here indicates that they are being phased out?

Yes it’s a CS 777 on the DXB route (4 weekly) in July.
It then changes to an A350 from August 1st till end of summer schedule.

Gotcha - so looking like no Club Suites for Winter schedule 2020-21 then by the looks of things (seat selection maps for the 777 routes from Oct onwards are still showing the old Club World layout)
