Delta 777-200ER/LR Conversions to 7HD & 7HB. Pre-mods config is 37J/36W/218Y. For all the ERs and the first LR, post-mods config was initially 28J/48W/220Y (7HD/7HB). The post-mods config for all ERs and LRs is now 28J/48W/90Y+/122Y (7CD/7CB).

Modifications are taking place at SIN and the entry and exit dates are based on SIN time (GMT + 8 hrs). Comfort + installation was done at ATL on all the 7HD>7CD conversions, and on 7106 (7HB>7CB). The remaining 9 LRs had the C + cabins installed at SIN.

Sigh. No C+ for MSP-HND for a Nov trip now. And that's a tough enough upgrade to D1 before getting rid of seats.

The second aircraft is about to enter mods at SIN, with N706DN ferrying from SEA>SIN today. The designation for the LR model is 7HB, and the ER is designated 7HD.

So in other words, no worries about me being swapped out for a 777 suite tomorrow when I do SEA-HKG. I am doing the 350 coming back so we'll see how that turns out.

You can track the flights of N863DA, the only one of 18 to be modded so far, on either one of these tracking sites:

Nov 5 MSP-HND saw an equipment swap to the refurbished 777. I actually ended up in a PS seat, a nice upgrade from C+, although the service and amenities, as well as the flight's marketing, remained identical to the original flight.

We were on ship number 7006 coming back HKG-SEA, but its tail number is N865DA.

That's correct - 7006 is a B777-200ER (N865DA)

Just to clarify, Ship 7106 is the one that just entered mods - a B777-200LR (N706DN)

Ships 70xx are -ER while 71xx are -LR in the DL ship naming convention.

This is pretty crummy because there are too few rows of PS to accommodate everyone who needs the extra legroom.

I have a flight in April, CDG-ATL DL83, that changed from an A330 and is now showing the re-fit 777. Plenty of time for that to change again though.

Any idea when this plane is supposed to be completed and what routes it’ll be on?

Flying LAX-SYD in mid-December in J and then SYD-LAX in early Jan in J. Both flights are close to being sold out in J. Wonder how they would manage the downgrades if the flight was full and the new plane got swapped in.

It's not coming to the SYD route until well into 2019 so you don't need to worry

I understand it’s not scheduled into SYD until 2019, but surely it’s going to get flown somewhere that DL flys their LR’s. Heck, the 772 that’s been upgraded isn’t scheduled on the DTW-NRT route but has been subbed in on that route.

The next B772 to enter mods at SIN is #7005 N864DA, and is currently ferrying from HNL>SIN. This will be the second ER (7HD) to be modded, with the first LR (7HB), #7106 N706DN, currently in mods also.
