I don't think you can judge by the leather color anymore. I was on a A320 (ship 4276/N476UA, New F) ORD-SFO this afternoon and it was most certainly SL/New F but all of the Y seats were a kind of drab tan rather than the blue that I'm used to on SL birds [the new F seats were that blue, however]

Besides the noted possibilities of equipment swaps, charters, etc., you might as well get this out of the way now, while you're doing a lot of non-rev training flights, than decide a year from now that you want to schedule a 77W to ORD and have to do this all over again.

They started swapping out the seat covers for the same blue/navy patterns seen on the 737 slimlines. Not sure whether or not there are still any Airbuses out there still with the grey seats, as I now avoid them for their noticeable discomfort.

I guess it also involves adjusting the position of all ground equipment, ground personnel familiarization, also studying interference to neighboring gates / taxiways/ roadways while the plane is parked in place? especially we may have an a/c with longer after-section parked at gate 76/77 where tail go outward towards taxiway C

Gate fitting at ORD seems odd. ANA already operates the 773 from the C gates.

Yes, the first slimline seats on the A319/320 were grey. It looked a lot like an LH cabin.
They started swapping out the seat covers for the same blue/navy patterns seen on the 737 slimlines. Not sure whether or not there are still any Airbuses out there still with the grey seats, as I now avoid them for their noticeable discomfort.
