They should be as the summer peak is coming.
But i don't understand why they cant do all the changes at once, such as the 9-abreast to 10 abreast seat conversions, PEY footrest upgrade, livery change, F upgrade, wifi.......
it is not what you call efficient, flying an empty plane to XMN back and forth.

Compared to getting 10-abreast rolled out for northern hemisphere summer holidays/camps.

According to sites.google.com/site/a350xwbproduction/production-list The first 35K, LXA is awaiting its first flight. LXB is on a parking stand and LXC and D are undergoing cabin fit.

Yes, LXA has taken to the skies. We can expect yet more planes with broken mirrors, armrests and lights, beds that fail to go completely flat and insufficient galley space soon
Never mind the lack of prime seats that CX DMs would certainly appreciate like 11A/K on the 77H.

77W Retirements
Isn't B-KPA-KPE will be the 77W Retirements and when are they going to be retired?

KPB, KPC, KPG, KPH, KPJ will be retired first as these 5 77Ws are leased.
KPB will leave the fleet this year.

Any sign of the ex-EK 773s? Weren't they expected to come online in April?

All 5 are 77Hs. There will be fewer planes with F. When will the 777-9Xs join the fleet?

Want to talk about KA for a moment...
Seems KA is running out of (fly-able) 333... Today (11 May) they even need to delay KA838 (HKG-SHA) until KA937 has returned from PEK.... Given the seniority of KA's 333 I can't imagine how much more delay will be in the entire KA system if really no "new" aircraft join KA fleet before the A321neo arrives....

According to fr24, HLJ is now grounded, there's a rumour that 5 CX 33Ps (J24Y293, equil. to KA 33H) are going to KA later.
