Cheers guys! Im trying to make my mind up as to book J class to FLL or MCO .... I need to go north of orlando but also want to choose the best product.
FLL seems to have the refurbished 77L. No idea about the MCO route as there doesn't seem to have any consistency?
The alternative would be to go to JFK on the A380 and take a connecting flight from there.
Was hoping that they would use the newer J class seats on the 77W to MCO as I hate the lie flat seats on the older 77W!
Thanks guys!

Per routesonline source, EMX will be retired likely next month and all 773 will go for 77L or 77W.

EMX just got back from a week long maintenance check, so it's fit to fly for a while longer, and will be withdrawn with EMV in late October and fly to XMN where they'll be repainted in CX livery.

I got it, no matter what it is, 2 of them will be flying for CX soon likely next month or later. So I think once they are gone, there will be no more RR powered 777 anymore after the 772 got away as well last year. The only RR powered jet flown by EK is the A380-842 if not mistaken after the 773 is gone from it's fleet.

Now, it's not uncommon for EK aircraft to show up as AA1234 when they are at the maintenance facility in DXB, but FR24 actually shows A6-EBV flying from DFW to MKE on both 18th and 19th September with that callsign. Very strange.
EDIT: Probably a bug on FR24s end. AA1234 was operated by a regular MD83 on both 18/19th September.
