Anyone know what the class configuration of this new 777ER is ?

Is it 3 class ?

The reason I ask is that were off to DXB from GLA tomorrow and the online check in is showing a three class plane ( J class numbers from 6 to 11) and this route is normally a 2 class.

A6 ECB was at GLA on Saturday for the first time and I'm kind of hoping that she'll be back on Monday.

The other nasty possibility is that an old A300-200 3 class is scheduled and that would be very disappointing.

Anyone know what tail number is on EK25/26 for 10/09/07 ?? DXB-GLA-DXB

EK25/26 has been switched to a 3-class B77W due to a requirement for the higher density configured aircraft elsewhere on the network. The aircraft on 10 Sep will be that configured with the cradle style J seats. F will have SkyCruiser seats. Registration will be anyone of A6-EBC/EBE/EBG/EBI/EBJ/EBK/EBM/EBN/EBO.

FYI - A6-ECB is a high density configured aircraft (ie. J and Y only) but features Emirates' latest in-flight product set - ICE v2 IFE system, lie flat seats in J with wireless mode controllers etc.

I think you'll find that the flight is still only sold as 2 classes (Y & J). Thus, you should be able to snag an F seat even though you're in J. Phone up EK ASAP and grab your seat

Cheers,
