Schedules on the tg website are updated about two months in advance... so I'd expect the operating aircraft to be reflected for April in about 12 days or so.

thanks for your prompt reply, then maybe i should fly from SYD and try the 1st class ..
Unfortunately I think the current information we have is that the date has been moved to June... if that happens at all.

The 777-300 (as opposed to the 777-200/300 designator which has angled beds) seems to be pretty consistent on the TG465/466.

At the moment it's scheduled for both daily flights every day of that week (23MAR to 01APR) plus the following week - I haven't checked any further.

So it looks like the rolling 2 months is in effect gradually replacing the A350 showing in forward schedules.

Notified of an aircraft change from A350 to B773 for 26 April 
At least the seat config is the lie flat seating. Hopefully that won't change.

A350 BKK-MEL Scheduled now from 10/1
Airlineroute is reporting the a350 is now rescheduled to being service to Melbourne beginning 10/1. I checked a flight in August on Thai's website and both departures are now showing 777-300.

The 465/6 have been pretty consistent however for the 77W (777-300)
