Unlike all other 767 versions Delta has, there isn't a lavatory set near the over-wing exits (because they are near the 2nd set of doors).

*Note: For flights needing a crew rest (most flights to Europe, and anything to Africa/South America/Asia), a seat (usually 7A) is blocked off for crew rest.
**All retired 9/30/2020 due to COVID-related fleet simplifications, but all have been reactivated.

N1611B
N1612T
N1613B
*Note: This configuration is used inclusive on SEA-PVG, ATL-LOS. It also frequently works SEA-ATL to provide rotation. These aircraft do cover flights to Europe All 36J seats will be sold because it has a crew rest module installed. Also, the Y seats are the older ones like the 777 with the older IFE system (only 767-300ER type with that, all others are the newer seats/system).
**All retired 6/30/2020 due to COVID-related fleet simplifications

What DL is believed to do is put all flights with 26J as the 76Z Version 2 configuration and then change it to 76Z Version 1 closer to departure as needed. If you select 20-21CDE when it is 76Z Version 2 and it changes to 76Z Version 1, it should seat you in 13-14CDE considering that 20-21CDE doesn't exist on the configuration it changed to. All other seats are numbered the same regardless of Version 1 or 2, although there may be minor differences such as row 20 being an exit row on Version 1.

It seems that the 76Ls are all going to 76Z, but again, that's just conjecture.

This article from Nov-21 was posted on an a.net thread, and it's anyone's guess as to the 'active' count at a given time and conversions. 763s should be around for a few years, likely past 2025, but details are spotty.

The newest (and largest group) of 76E (B767-300ERs) frames have the GE engines, I did a post somewhere (maybe this thread) some time ago, that DL would probably like to simplify the 76E versions down to just the GE engine types, why hold on to a very small group (around 5->7 frames) of 76E's that have the PW engines. And that being said, The "L"s (have the PW engines) will probably all convert to the Z (well Z1) versions from 211 seats to 226 seats, while the Z to K versions will convert from 226 seats to 216 seats (with the added PS sections). I guess this all hinges on when Either Boeing or Airbus has a "two isle" replacement aircraft for Boeing's oldest twin isle aircraft. Based on cost comparisons (if all things are equal), would the A330-800neo be a better replacement than a B787-700 or Boeing's NMA future aircraft (whenever that may happen). Just a thought.

Delta 763 Fleet Plan

Quote:

Originally Posted by ChamplinAl

Yep, I saw someone post on Facebook about their fleet plan and they said that’s exactly what they’re planning to do - they'll keep the GE birds around for longer since they’re newer than the PW birds (and GE is the more common engine, at least on the 767 anyway, so that'd make it easier for maintenance to be done if needed). All of the remaining GE ships will receive the 76K mods, whereas the remaining PW ships will stay in the 76Z config (and I believe the 76Ls will be converted to 76Z as well to simplify things further for the time being). Or at least that’s the plan anyway. As we all know from the last 2 years, sometimes life doesn’t go according to plan. But at some point the PW ones will have to be retired, and they'll probably only stay in the fleet a few more years. The GE ones since they are newer and will be refurbished will stay around a bit longer than that.

Side note: I know PS.net currently lists ship 1521 as parked, but it's an oddball now in the fleet since all of its identical twins with the third main door in front of the wing having been retired (ships 1501-1506), so I doubt it's going to come back. When I talked about the remaining GE ships getting 76K mods, I'm obviously referring to ships 1601-1606 and 1701-1708.

I also agree with your point about ship #1521, but other than the third main door in front of the wing, couldn't it be reconfigured as a 76K, or will the fact that it's already missing rows 13-14/seats CDE mean that it would still have to be the oddball? It does already have the 26 seat FC/D1 config. This frame was originally built for Continental Airlines, but was delivered to Asiana in 1995, before it joined the Delta fleet in 1998.

All 7 Delta GE equipped "T" version 767's, went to Amazon Prime, no doubt becoming freighters. Of the remaining 40 active 767 frames: 5 are the 211-seat PW equipped "L" versions (1 of which has been converted to a 226-seat "Z" version), 7 226-seat GE equipped "Z" versions have been converted to the 216-seat "K" versions, the remaining 7 226-seat GE equipped "Z" versions remained unchanged, and all 21 remaining 226-seat PW equipped "Z" versions also have remained unchanged. Still unsure of what DL is planning on doing with GE equipped N394DL - the only "Z2" version parked at BHM with activity over the last 5+ months. Delta still has 4 "parked" PW equipped "L" version 767 aircraft that appear to be permanently WFU (2 at BHM {last used 2020-Mar}, and 2 at VCV {last used 2021-Apr}). The website rzjets.net show these as "stored" or "withdrawn from use".

179 is scheduled to head to CAN on Tuesday, presumably for 76L->76Z mods:

https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N179DN

This should trigger the return of 174 to the US with the 76Z configuration.

179 has arrived at CAN. Turns out the plane headed back to the US is 1706 with PS installed, not 174 as I had originally thought.

Has anyone flown in row 30 on the new 76K?

I didn’t find a reply to this and am wondering if anyone has flown in row 30 (C+ bulkhead) on the 76K. If so, how is row 30?
