Emirates 1st class suite 777 MEL-DXB Game Changer?

[Snowmoo]

Are any of the 777's on the EK405 route (MEL-DXB) running the upgraded 1st class suites (Game changer?)

Or is there a way to lookup a flight number, check the aircraft rego they are using on a particular date in the future? FlightRadar24 only shows through to March, I'm trying to crystal ball in July and then cross check that tail rego against a list of upgraded 777's

Game changer - no. I believe those are not being refitted and emirates doesn't deploy it on the Aussie routes.

Upgrade to the "new" business class (1-2-1 config instead of their infamous 2-3-2), that is indeed possible. They retain their original 777 F suites which are still solid products albeit not the 380 or game changer suites.

Thankyou. Aligns with the research I've done. Just needed that additional opinion to get my thinking right

Flew the new F on 777 DXB GVA couple of years ago. Just fabulous. But limited rollout, mainly European routes. They are not in a hurry to upgrade Australian routes AFAIK. Here’s one link showing flight numbers

Which Routes Feature The New Emirates First Class?

Emirates' new first class product is incredible. Which planes have these seats, and which routes do they fly? Here's what you need to know.

The problem is they stopped upgrading the game changers period. The current 777 refurbishment program updates business economy and adds PE but only just refreshes F.

I believe they initially were just going to wait for 777X but if I were to guess right now they might just be working on a completely different F product as it wont be long before even the game changer hits a decade.
