Got TG'd - TG672
So I just noticed that my upcoming flight this summer got TG'd from a 380 to 350.
I was booked in First
I'm guessing this aircraft swap is most likely going to stick? Any chance of it changing back to either a 747 or 380?
Interesting to note though, it seems like TG622 is changing to the 380 sometime this year? I thought I read that was scheduled to change to a 350...

I suggest you bookmark it and read it once a week, to avoid suprises.

so why don't you change to TG622? seem to be on A380 through July/August. I am sure TG will accommodate giving your booking in F
don't expect that they fly two times per day with A380 to Osaka!

Not to hijack the thread, but the switch of equipment on Haneda flight will leave quite a bunch of people TG'd.
OTOH, there is new F award space for 1 seat even on high season dates.

"The A350-900XWB will operate following service.

Seems like TG is trying to figure out where to put their A350s
I'm looking to get onto TG676 to NRT instead. This route seems more consistent, with less equipment swaps.
Hopefully, this flight will remain an A380 for this summer... I'll just take the Shinkansen to Osaka.
