Confirmed : Regional 772's to get cabin refurb (72A)

[9V-SIA]

Are the seats here going to be the same as those on the Airbus widebodies?

Cabin will look like the A330's.

Does anyone have any pictures of the new cabin refit?

None in Y. But a few of the front.

Note: no F for 772s.

and has the krisworld been updated to the newest version? or is it still the same old dreaded system

Enhancements will also be made to Singapore Airlines’ award-winning KrisWorld in-flight entertainment system, for better Audio-Video On Demand features in both cabin classes, such as a more intuitive and user-friendly graphical interface. Business Class seats will feature larger 15.4-inch screens, while screens in Economy Class will be increased to 9 inches later this year.

Pitch is up to 65" from 60" for a start, so maybe they're slightly different in the "flatness"? just a guess.

If a flight is fully booked, and they refurb the aircraft later on for a smaller capacity, will the flight be considered "overbooked"?

As we know those regional C seats on the A330 come with a USB-port that allows one to play the contents of his MP3 player on the aircraft's IFE. Will we see that on the refurbished 777s, either in the new C or the regional 772s Y?

Aren't they supposed to deploy the 77Ws on the SIN-SYD route and not the refurbished regional 773s?

No.

Why not?

[hybridace101]

No.



Why not?

I guess because SIN-SYD is a long-haul and/or high-yield route by the carrier's standards.

SYD is actually regional like the rest of the Ozzie destinations.

[hybridace101]

^^

But the yields are quite high. Probably one of the carrier's flagship routes.

No More Regional F to India

Looks like there's been a further shuffle in the Northern Summer deployment of the reconfig 772s: once complete, there'll be no more regional F to the Indian subcontinent (including Dacca, Colombo, and Male, the latter two of which get A330s as noted elsewhere).

SIN-BOM goes two-class 4 May; SIN-DEL goes 29 May; SIN-MAA goes 29 June -- the last 3-class 773 route to India, and also the last three-class turn to India period, except for the one 77W turn to BOM, and the one 77W to DEL.

Won't leave the remaining three-class regional birds much to do: a couple of Middle East loops, a China trip or two, a Manila maybe, and Jakarta.....

I am looking into SIN-CHC and online it shows 777-200 or 777-200ER. What's the likelihood of new angled lie-flat J seats for end of year flights?

Am I better off taking SIN-BNE connecting to an NZ flight?

Absolutely not. CHC gets a 772ER with SpaceBeds. The new J seat on the 330 is not so much better as to justify going out of your way like that.

Who knows what the reg of the first batch of 772s/77Es to be refurbished?

If you are that free to post nonsense; why not use the search tool?

[hybridace101]

Because there are no matches coming-up.
