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.

Looks legit. 7105 may be the next in for mods.

Sorry in advance haven't read all the posts on this 26 page thread.

My apologies. I should have written something like:
Briefly, the 777-200ER fleet is done, and the 777-200LR fleet is just starting. Check out the wikipost at the top of this thread for all the details.

It certainly looks like it, although the routing from Fairbanks, AK to SIN is interesting. A military charter perhaps?

Yup, must have been a military flight- before Fairbanks it was at Osan Airbase, Korea.

It hasn't actually arrived at NRT yet, with just over one hour to go (as I write this!) Then on Sunday (Japan time) it will fly from NRT>OSN>EIL (Fairbanks, AK)>SIN, and will be crossing the International Dateline twice more!

The sched also has it going to Eielsen AFB (EIL) rather than Fairbanks International (FAI). I didn't know TRANSCOM/AMC (formerly MAC) contracted with Delta. I was always stuck on C-141s and C-5s, except on my way to the Persian Gulf when it was on a MAC chartered Hawaiian Air flight.

7006, N865DA, entered ATL for Comfort + installation yesterday. Comfort + installation for 7004, N863DA, should be completed this weekend.

There is a delay and/or rescheduling going on with N705DN 7105.

I flew MSP HND and back on 2/24 and there was no C+ on this plane. I assume its a 777 LR and is being worked on this year.

That's because you flew on N861DA from HND>MSP on Feb 24, and it's a B772ER. Refer to the WiKi above for current C + installation updates.

Has anyone flown in C+ on the refitted B777-ER? Are there better or worse seats? I’m flying MSP-CDG on 3/27. The seat map shows the C+ bulkhead seats blocked and all C+ seats open. In my reservation, my selected seat is indicated in the otherwise empty C+ cabin. If I do a dummy booking on delta.com the C+ seats are all open except the bulkheads. In the list of flights the Comfort+ column states “Select Comfort+ After Purchase of Main.” This is true on other dates as well. If I try a dummy booking on the app C+ is listed as Not Offered.

I haven’t read all of this thread and apologize if this has already been discussed.

Mine recently shows my C+ seat assignment on seatmap. It was full empty C+ cabin a while ago when I checked last time. HND-MSP on 77L.

Today, for the first time, I am seeing a realistic seat map with my seat assignment; I no longer have the entire 89 seat C+ cabin to myself.

[QUOTE=hsnu84053;30822570]Mine recently shows my C+ seat assignment on seatmap. It was full empty C+ cabin a while ago when I checked last time. HND-MSP on 77L.[/QUOTE

Please keep in mind that Delta website shows B777-200LR's as a refit aircraft and are probably B777-200ER's. Delta's website shows all pre refit 777 aircraft as "777". At this point, the 8 ER's are all but finished with the refit and only 1 of the 10 LR's have finished the refit process and currently its at ATl getting the 4th cabin seating done. Based on current March2019 and April 2019 schedules, Delta can supply those routes with the 8 ER's and will phase the post refit LR's into the schedule as needed. Coming 1-March it's ATL-NRT legs (probably with the ER's). Coming in 1-April it's MSP-ICN legs (and probably will be with LR's) or will move ATL-NRT back to LR's as it is today and have MSP-ICN being done with ER's (why?.....most of the ER schedule is being centered around MSP....ie MSP-HND-MSP and MSP-CDG-MSP). This is my hunch, but that and a dollar will get you a lousy cup of coffee. Any other thoughts on this matter is accepted !
