Good for you but now I'm confused, maybe on the date or I'm just losing it.
This was your flight which I assumed was on the 8th...

And even LH said it was New.
Or maybe you flew 447 yesterday (9th) when 447 went back to a non-retrofitted bird?

As you will see in this thread three remaining 744s with seat+bed on the upper deck are almost exclusively flying on routes with no First Class service.

There are currently 15 x B744 based in FRA. 13 (D-ABTK/TL/VM/VO/VP/VR/VS/VT/VU/VW/VX/VY/VZ) have new C but no F, and remaining two (D-ABVL & D-ABVN) still with seat and bed on the upper deck will be retired.

Wow, I now find myself very fortunate to have taken a ride on one last year, the first class bed was amazing. Didn't they only put these new first class seats in them only a few years ago and already taking them out, I wonder what they do with the "old seats" as they seemed almost new.

The seat+bed combo F was done using refurbished recaro F seats of 1998 vintage and adding a small bed from the standard inventory of LH Technik workshop in HAM, who usually do VIP aircraft. The cost of that seat solution was minimal compared to buying a new complete B/E Oasis seat. Which would have been too heavy for the 744 upper deck anyway.
