The fleet type codes such as 77P or 77K are what can be used to identify the type of aircraft under "Check Routing" on www.qrcargo.com. The aircraft type on QR Cargo is fairly accurate if you search for a flight within the current calendar month.

darthlemsip,
Qatar Airways is reconfiguring the A340-600 to a 2-class layout. See the Airlineroute.net story here regarding it being deployed to KUL.

I have a booking from CDG and the ac was changed from A388 to A333 with antique J seats, 60" and 165 degrees. Apparently the same type of plane also flies to LHR.
Can anyone point out the logic of using such old seating to major destinations like London and Paris, while many secondary airports get the new 180 horizontal seats?

It does seem like a strange thing to do when there are so many 'nice' ac coming to LHR & CDG now. If they are going smaller then a 787 would make sense. I guess you are unlikely to take the gamble and book with Qatar again?

Does anyone know which seats in business class have the longer seatpitch. Noticed there is a difference (50" in 787, and 51-52" in 380) and as a tall dude every inch counts ... any help appreciated

The old planes have an F class, and they've sold F tickets for those sectors, whereas all the new planes except the A388 seem to only have J and Y. Not a great reason, but I suspect that's it.

Due to differing airframe widths and seat arrangements, aisle widths etc., what happens is that the same seat is angled slightly differently (ok, so it's not exactly the same seat but the bits that count are largely the same) which is what influences pitch...basically the seats are slightly less diagonal in the 380.
At least that's what I think is going on. In both cases, I believe the bed length is around 80 inches.
