What is the plan to refurbish the existing 737's to the new Max cabin? Any news on timing?

LOT's press releases state that they will be refurbishing the fleet, not just bringing in new equipment with the new design.

Yes, LOT ordered new recaro seats for all SP-LVx. Probably LVG and LVH will be first before summer.

Does anyone know which aircraft have had the retro and are in service? Curious if LO279 later today might have the new setup...

retro livery or retrofit?
retro livery no chance. LHR is 100% B38M. Only one MAX has different livery: Star Alliance LVF. New cabins have SP-LYx.

I have two flights scheduled with 737 MAX 8’s. One has seats 1D-1F but the other doesn’t. Is this something to do when the aircraft were delivered?
