The mysterious EK385

Just did some random 'service by flight' browsing on emirates.com. It's shown that EK385 (HKG-BKK-DXB) will have ICE entertainment on the first leg and TV&RADIO on teh second leg in July. In August, it would be the other way round. So does that mean there will be an aircraft rotation in BKK, or a crew of engineers will rush onboard and retrofit the seats in 75 minutes?

Some of the DXB-BKK-DXB flight have been operated with A332s lately.

I just flew on EK384 DXB-BKK 17 July in J class, 777-300. No ICE, old & crappy seats (once the passenger reclined in front of me, he couldn't put the seat upright until a bunch of people came to help just before touch down) so I was virtually trapped in my seat most of the time

Could be they will change to a better plane in Aug
