Any CX 777ERs back in circulation ?
Have any of the CX 777ERs back flying? Any with F? I see schedules for later this year but wonder if any have been brought back to flying now.

interesting! And good news I guess.

Are they selling F in the short term on any routes? i.e. selling close up with a good chance of it being offered

All 777-300ERs currently in operation are cargo only passenger flights, some have been reconfigured to 77C with the removal of Economy Class seats. It's quite likely when the scheduled flight is near, they will change it to an A350-900/1000.

The only other aircraft type currently flying regular scheduled passenger flights is the A330 (33E and 33J with flat bed business class and no premium economy class seats), which you'll mostly find on regional routes and/or routes formerly operated by Cathay Dragon.

This route doesn't currently operate F however however. I mean, there may be butts in the F cabin seats, but it's just DM's with J service. Lol.

OT: three former Cathay 777s were acquired by a Russian charter airline with the Cathay four-class interiors intact

Some flights to PEK/PVG/LAX/SFO/ORD/JFK/LHR in August will be served by 77W due to the overwhelming demand from Chinese students returning school.

It seems while there are flights scheduled with 77w, many either get cancelled closer to the date, get zeroed out and seats not sold, or just swapped to 350 closer to the date.. It really seems like most 77w flights are being used for cargo only....

moondog has a nice picture at PVG in the Asia forum (CX not being the main topic of discussion, but just happens to be in the background)
no F on this one, and tail number is too blurry to distinguish
