FAQ

A: Only the Airbus A380-800, A350-900, Boeing 777-300ER, 787-8 and 787-9 feature full flat seats in Royal Silk. The A380 is used on the following routes: LHR, CDG, FRA, HKG, KIX and NRT.
The B777-300ER regularly serves these destinations: OSL, CPH, ARN, FRA, BRU, ZRH, VIE, SIN, PVG, PEK, MEL and BNE. It also regularly flies domestic runs to HKT and CNX.
Q: Which routes get the new 747 «suites»?
A: Any route which is scheduled to be operated by a Boeing 747 might see the new «suites», but some routes are more likely to get them (but not guaranteed). These routes are: MUC, HKG, HND and SYD. Flights to HKT are often operated by the them, although these flights are without First class service.
Q: What are the chances of ending up on one of the old Boeing 747s with recliner seats in Royal First and Silk?
A: 0 %. All Boeing 747s have been converted and feature full flat seats in Royal First and angle flat seats in Royal Silk. Every seat in Economy also features a PTV with AVOD and AC power (every two seats).
Q: To which destinations do TG offer Royal First?
A: LHR, CDG, FRA, MUC, HKG, KIX, NRT, HND and SYD. Flights to PEK and PVG have "seasonal" (rather occasional) F service.
Q: Which version of the Boeing 777 features Royal First?
A: None. TG leased a handful of Boeing 777-300ERs from Indian Jet Airways a few years ago, that had eight enclosed first class suites. These aircraft have been returned to Jet Airways and are no longer in the fleet.
Q: Which destinations are served by wifi enabled planes?
A: Airbus A380 on routes to LHR, CDG, FRA, HKG, KIX, NRT. A330 (Only the 33H-version) on routes to PER, TPE, PVG, HKG, KIX, ICN and other intra Asian routes. A350 on routes to MEL.

All of the information above is based on seat maps from TG's own website and fleet information from planespotter(dot)com, as well as on information already available on this forum thanks to its dedicated members. Cabin views are from airliners(dot)net and jetphotos(dot)net.
Please feel free to comment if you have more information and if anything I've written is false. I appreciate all the help I can get.
And remember: There is always the possibility of being TG'ed (being subject to a last minute equipment change). Thus you never know which aircraft and configuration you will get until you actually set foot on the aircraft.
Happy flying!

All of the information above is based on seat maps from TG's own website and fleet information from planespotter(dot)com, as well as on information already available on this forum thanks to its dedicated members.
Please feel free to comment if you have more information and if anything I've written is false. I appreciate all the help I can get.
And remember: There is always the possibility of being TG'ed (being subject to a last minute equipment change). Thus you never know which aircraft and configuration you will get until you actually set foot on the aircraft.
Happy flying!

Wow! Fantastic post. Thanks for doing this. Only other information I'd like to see is information on the current routes where you can get full flat seats in J or F (i.e. routes for 773ER, 747, A340, and A380).

Excellent work Kimmam. THAI has such convoluted, ambiguous codes for some of their aircraft (such as "777-200/300") that this will greatly help! And also a nice touch with the links to seat maps and photos!
A couple of questions/suggestions:
1) Do the 777-200ERs really have a USB power port in Business? I remember the new -300ERs having that, but must have missed it on the -200ERs. Where are they located?
2) Is there any difference in what missions the two subfleets of RR-powered A330s (330 and 33H) are used for? Other than the slight difference in economy seating and entertainment system I see on the chart, is there any other differences between them? Range? Max Gross Weight/Payload? Just curious!
It would be great to add to this chart a range of manufacturer delivery dates for each particular sub-fleet.

1) I think you are right. They don't. I remember I charged my phone when I flew the -200ER way back in 2010, but it was probably through the AC power outlet.
2) I don't think there is a difference between the two versions of RR A330. According to planspotters both are A330-343 which I believe implies they have the same engines and thus the same range and payload. But I don't really have the right knowledge, so I might be wrong

Love the addition of the FAQ.
Glad they made this a sticky.
Time to drop the "Sticky: Cabin Retrofit status on TG's 747s" as a sticky. (Mods please!)
Look forward to the addition of the 787 at some point in the future.

Thanks a lot, OP, for compiling this list! ^
I'm flying on TG for the first time later this summer (have 2 A380 in F, and will experience the 1x2x1 773-300ER from BKK-SIN). Looking forward to the experience.

Thanks for the info.
The seatmap link takes me to cabin version 74B1 which I think is not the right one.

On investigating further, I think it might be a weird geographic issue. I am in Australia, and the Australian Thai site does not include the new config for the 773ER. However when I go to the US Thai site and start from there I do get to an (apparently) correct seat map.
