LH is switching to 8F seats on B744s from April 22, 2011., and all retrofitted aircraft in system will have subtype sign B74P, whereas non-retrofitted will remain B744. The same as with ici retrofit if I remember correctly.

However, I always had enjoyable flights on the current 747 in F if seatblocking was switched on (which was quite rare to/from BKK). I can actually sleep very well on the current seat, even though everyone seems to hate it.

Looking forward to the new F cabin on the 747. I already have a couple of F flights lined up for the second half of 2011 to BKK.

Once the switch is completed to 8 seats- I suspect there will also be a reduction in "A" fares available- which will pretty much mean I am flying C on this route in the future.
