LAX-FCO, was A330-220 and now A350-900
I have travel coming up in June, LAX-FCO. When the flight was booked, the aircraft was listed as an A330-200. However, now when I look at the flight information on Expert Flyer, the aircraft is showing as a A350-900. My original seat selections were based on the A332 business class cabin. Seatguru doesn't show an A359 for Alitalia/ITA. I'm curious if this is a new build for ITA or perhaps it was acquired from another carrier?
Another odd thing is that Expert Flyer is still showing the economy cabin as an A332.
