Might still book it anyway, but would love to try the new business class seat.
I would guess it is in operations by then, having already done two test flights.

How can we track the progress of the third and fourth frames? I want to know if my DFW flights next summer will be on the A350.

The third one is MSN635 registered F-WWDW and has been spotted in full colour scheme, I can't remember right now with or without engines (1 and 2 being 610 and 628). The fourth one is MSN662 and has been assigned F-WZND as registration. But has not reached a part of the assembly where it has been spotted anywhere.

FYI, the seat map for my summer flight flipped to the new configuration, so worth checking your reservations

Row 1 typically gets released T-24? I forgot how they do it. I want those three windows!

I would expect it only to be the summer schedule that was updated as of the 20th of December.

Did anybody with HND-DFW flights get their seatmaps updated to the new configuration? What is the date of your flights?
