UA website and paper timetable answers that one.

The 767-300 are ALL 3 class for It'l and ALL are 2 class in purely domestic use. Unless it is an It'l flight beginning or ending a transcon en-route.

Phone Res .. they can see easily, whether yours is 2 or 3 class. But then they may change equipment on you as ZRS just posted!

ozstamps,

Would all three class 763-ERS have new biz seats like they do on BOS-LHR and JFK-LHR?

Thanks

No idea, and even Res. may not know that one. It is like the domestic 757s .. some still have the old grey leather seats in F (which I prefer) or the "new" cloth ones with "wings" headrests etc. It is just russian roulette it seems which one you get.

Nope. I was on a 767-300 SFO-ORD last week that still had old seats in C.

I took a 763 from MIA to SFO last week and it had all new seats in C and F. But no 1st suite.

Any "old" C seats are on the 200s, not the 300s. The 300s were the first fully-completed refurbished fleet. The 200s will be just about the last refurbished.

All 3-class 763s have the "new" seats in C class. All 2-class 763s have the new domestic seats in F.

All 3-class 762s have the old seats in C.
