Excuse my lack of expertise but what does 2142 mean? Will this be the first 763 that will undergo retrofitting with Polaris seats? In Hong Kong??? I would have thought that the retro fitting would occur at some US hub of UA... or am I misunderstanding your post? Also, how do you know (I know you said "assume" but still...) that the N642UA is about to get the new seats? Just trying to understand and possibly learn how to spot planes that are up next... I'm excited that the conversion seems to be starting and have been wondering when it would start and why UA is not putting out a schedule or at least announces the start of the 763/772 retrofitting (see my thread "Polaris retrofit schedule"). Thanks in advance for sharing your expert knowledge😊🙃

It's UA flight 2142 for the portion IAH-HNL, and different flight number afterwards, in most cases sequential. eg: UA2143 HNL-GUM on the next day.
Currently both UA and AA have their 777s re-configed at HKG, and IIRC UA 2 cabin 763s were re-configed at HKG as well. It's done in HAECO @HKG mostly due to relatively lower cost
Right now it's all assumption based on various posts in this thread as well as your 'Polaris retrofit schedule' thread, nothing official yet, but if this bird is confirmed receiving polaris conversion that's the first one from existing fleet.

Thanks much Joe and Juventini! Do you mind if I post your answers on the other thread? Is there a way to post a link to your response on the threads? Alternatively, feel free to post yourself. Thanks!

That seems like a lot of work for what may not be all that much better performance @:-)
Plus the photos of Max 737 OEM scimitars look very much like the top is the same old winglet
Sadly I missed one of the testing birds at DAL by just a couple of hours

UA233/418 p.s. flights showing 3 cabin intl 772 seat map starting 2/10, indicates the only 77D ship 2473 will operate this route until 2/9 then receive mods. Ship 2469 should be ready to go by then, 41 days after entering HKG, consistent with previous modifications in terms of duration.
SFO-BOS-SFO daily 777 flight resumes 2/16 with one additional 77G

UAX Update
The last 12 E-175s have now been assigned to Mesa. Beginning May 2017 Mesa will begin taking deliveries of 12 more E7Ws (originally ordered by Republic for UAX). This will bring Mesa's E7W fleet to 60 flying for UAX. Republic will also taKe 12 deliveries. Skywest has 7 more to be delivered as well.
In total this will bring Skywest to 65 E75s, Mesa 60 E75s, Republic 28 E75s. Total 153 (which is exactly the scope limit).
