June 12, 200917 yr I had taken this trip the last time I was flying and the plane was horrible. The seats were not International business class seats but regular USA business class seats. That is not what most pay for and no one was happy about it. It looks like NWA/Delta went back to the older configuration on this route. It is now an A330-200 aircraft with the same telescoping seats as the larger 747. Looks like NWA got the picture. Perhaps they swap in and out between the 2? But, I have been told by 3 who used this route that the larger seats format are back.
June 12, 200917 yr Maybe not! I checked prices for July and Aug and they were flying A330s and prices with upgrades to Business Class were about $2200 + 60,000 miles which is not bad. I also believe they were using 747s from the US to Japan. But looking for flighs later in the year, end of 2009 into 2010, they were showing the use of the 757s on the run from Japan to Bangkok. Maybe this will also change to A330s.
June 12, 200917 yr I just paid 1800 USD plus 50k miles to upgrade for Business. This is the cheapest I have paid in years!
