CX 889/888
my wife and I are flying on AAward tickets in First from JFK - HKG in 2 weeks
on the CX website, it lists the equipment for this flight as "EQV", which means the equipment varies
has anyone heard of anything but a 747 being used on this route? having being in First on the 747 and the Airbus, I greatly prefer the 747 cabin
thanks

I have always found CX to use a 747 on that route.

"EQV" means it will differ between the 747-400 with a smaller Business Class cabin, also dubbed as the "744" by Cathay, or the one with the larger Business Class cabin, dubberd as "74J".
CX will vary the aircraft depending on load/days. That's why you see "EQV".
