Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help me? I'm due to fly to orlando from Manchester on vs75 in March 2014. The aircraft is a 747 and I was wandering whether the plane is likely to be a refurbished.

Thanks in advanced

Andy

Hi and welcome.

Yes, all the MAN/LGW 747's competed their refurbs a good year + ago now.

Flew back from St Lucia on a LHR plane a week last Friday in PE, and I complained to the stewardess the touch screen wasn't working - she laughed and reminded me the LHR planes don't have a touch screen...

Oooops!

So the LGW/MAN fleet is now "better" in some respects than those old planes at LHR.

I think it's generally thought that the LHR fleet is now the poor relative somewhat
