moving map on 777 and 764?
Hi all... I searched for this info both here and on co.com, but I couldn't find it anywhere... Do the 777 and 764 both include a moving map as part of the entertainment system? I'm assuming the 777 does, but I'm less sure for the 764. Thanks for the responses!

Yes, the 764 has the moving map.

Wow! Thanks for the ultra-quick response! Am I correct in assuming the 777 has it as well?

The AVOD planes - 772 and 752 - have the newer high-defintion widescreen map. Looks prettier but has fewer information.
762 and 764 have the old-style Airshow with actually more info.

I should have said the new version shows fewer "views". Fewer levels of zooming in, and the old one has some point-of-view graphics, etc, that aren't on the new one.
Also, don't know if this has changed since I rode a 772 with AVOD last time, but at that time, it's English only. The older Airshow can have two languages. For example, EWR-HKG will have English and Traditional Chinese.

Thanks for the info! This is my first trip over to Europe in BF, so I'm really excited to try out the rest of the product as well... Countdown to Italy is 3 days!
