Help on F Class Flights
Hello fellow FT'ers,
Greetings! I've flown EK First to DXB I would say three/four years ago on their 777's. Now, this coming May I am going on a full "F" from:
1) LHR-DXB
2) DXB-MRU (and return)
3) DXB-BKK (and return)
4) AKL-SYD-BKK
Are there certain flights I should be weary of? I'd rather get the most of my money and get the "newer" services/seats/etc. Any recommendations?
Thank you in advance,
UG

1) For LHR-DXB segments, avoid all 773/332 planes. Try and get on a 77W (EK1/2/3*/4*) or 772 (EK4*/5*).
2) The DXB-MRU flight will be changed for a 332 to a 772 (which is good) and/or a 773 (bad) some time in May. A 772 will be far better than a 773.
3) DXB-BKK same thing. Avoid 332/773 flights. 77W flights are the best.
4) AKL-SYD-BKK is all on the 77W plane.
