The 23/24 have been Airbus for a long while (if not forvever).

Its a 744 today too for my VS8 back. VS23 out on Saturday was a 343 (UCS). The PE on the upper deck is superior to the 346, although the bulkhead row (18) on the 343/346 is quite reasonable. I was in 18A on VS23 on Saturday and there seemed to be more legroom that I remembered on the 346, certainly enough to stretch out in. Given the choice I'm on the 744 upper deck though which I am today (72K) and hopetully it will be ok for the overnight flight (although will try to get 70A/K at check-in)
As for if I'm fussed about VS7/8 moving to the 346? Not really, I fly it a few times a year at the moment but can cope with either if in PE, still the upper deck is nice on the overnight flights in UC over the front rows on the Airbus.
