737-800 Conversion
 

When will the 737-800 First Class conversion be finished?

IIRC the 738 re-configuration to larger F and mid cabin restroom was placed on hold, though there is a chance they may continue during major scheduled maintenance.

they shoudn't bother with the lav and make it 22F :)

:D :D :D !

Would you say that if you were in the front of Y and needed to pee during the meal service?

:D

seriously, the lav is what costs the $$$, why put in lav on a plane that has less seats?

I asked because I booked a flight for March, EWR-SEA, roundtrip. They canceled our return flight on a newer 737-800 and now we are flying on version 1 roundtrip. I thought maybe they would be pulling a version 1 & replacing it with a version 2, but it was the opposite. Once they canceled the flight, they moved us to an earlier one. I hope that maybe they put the flight back in.

Unfortutately 738 swaps happen all the time, espescially since they are still getting winglets. I gave been downgraded to coach after an EUA due to a last minute change in 738s. Stuff happens, of course, but it resulted in us being assigned some crappy seats in the back of the bus. Luckily I caught it in time to grab bulkhead.

IMHO I just dont see CO pressing to get these converted any time soon as they are concentrating their efforts (and cash) on the 752 and 753 conversions so they can free up equipment for the lucrative flights across the pond.
