Refurbished registration list?

[Chris R]

Is there a list anywhere of the 777-200 fleet that have (and haven’t) been upgraded to Club Suite?

I know the mainline Heathrow fleet have and the Gatwick fleet haven’t, but flying from LGW soon and generally keep an eye out via Flightradar which aircraft are operating the route. It’s not uncommon for a LHR aircraft to be switched over for a few. I’m travelling with a toddler, therefore the old CW seats are much better for us than the new CS. Would be good to know definitively based on the aircraft reg.

Thanks

There’s a thread on flyertalk which lists which are complete or currently undergoing refurb

Surely it’s easier to check the seat map for your flight – which is extremely unlikely to be wrong – rather than checking which aircraft is allocated (typically no more than 24-48 hours ahead and always subject to change anyway) and then checking the config for that aircraft?

However to answer the question, there are only two LHR based 777’s left with CW, G-VIIW and G-VIIY.

To be honest, I wouldn’t worry about it. The chances of you ending up on a Heathrow CS config 777 from Gatwick are very low and looking at which aircraft are operating your flight in the days prior isn’t really going to tell you anything. Equally the seat map isn’t going to predict any change prior to an aircraft being assigned.

However, if you’re interested and want a simple way of telling, look out for G-YMMG to G-YMMU operating Gatwick based services as those are the 3 class Heathrow CS aircraft from which temporary cover would almost always be selected.
