KQL is also in XMN as we speak. We'll find out up to which KQ* bird will get the new livery. KQR is a 77K with the old livery

I know that earlier KQ* birds will get a new paint livery. But later KQ* don’t.
B-KQL will be painted in new livery and will be re-configured into 77K.

Also, CX870/879 usually served by a B77K, got B-KQW which is a 77A which has less Y-class seats. I also discovered ExpertFlyer is showing B77A on 870/879 on Friday as well.
How often do these switches occur? 870/879 is a Y-heavy route in my experience and usually 77H/77A is allocated to 872/873 instead

CX3402 - B-KQT went XMN today, the aircraft is being reconfigured into 77K (will not be painted in new livery because later KQ* series don’t)

Yup since KQS and KQT and all others after weren't, I do not expect KQT to be painted either, but I do expect that it will get Wifi. Wow I was on KQT just 2 months ago on CX632 (MAA-HKG) when it was a B77G. The number of 77G are being reduced more rapidly than the 77H.

If B-HNQ is an ex-Emirates plane, I'm assuming it's a 77P and not a 73Z (10-abreast). Says the opposite on the doc just fyi.
EDIT: Oops... HNQ is the last original CX 773 my bad.

KQT returned as CX3367 on April 28. ExpertFlyer on the return from SYD to HKG indicated it is a 77K with the 10-across seat map.
I think this took less time because KQT was not repainted. The question is whether it's Wifi equipped or not but I guess it should be.
KQL is still in XMN so I would guess for sure it will be in the new livery.
