Very nice . Last year I had a flight from AMS to JFK in PH-BVA. Although many say the 3-4-3 seating configuration is too much, I didn't really feel uncomfortable.
On 28th september a 77W is scheduled on my flight from SIN to AMS as well. I hope it 'll be this one .
Does anyone know if KL will be scheduling it on some specific routes? Or will it fly to all KL 77W destinations? And when is its first commercial service scheduled?

26 PHKLM: Hardi is quite well known for despising the 77W's 3-4-3 layout in Y (despite the extra pitch and many carriers having the same).
27 Kappel: The 3-4-3 layout. I find the seats in the 744 to be on the narrow side. These are narrower. KL website says 31" pitch, like the rest of the fleet. So
28 EPA001: Although I am a Star Alliance fan (and frequent flyer customer ), I have to agree with you on this one. The colors of the livery and the plane itself
29 SpdBrdConcorde: So what are the potential location where both the AF77W and KL77W fly to???
30 Seemyseems: Not sure about AF, but there is a post about KL's B77W schedule.
31 AirCanadaA330: I think that Skyteam has the best looking colour scheme of all the alliances!
32 EPA001: Quoting Kappel (Reply 27): Quoting AerLingusA330 (Reply 25): What do you mean? The 3-4-3 layout. I find the seats in the 744 to be on the narrow side.
33 LACA773: Thanmks for posting the photos. I agree that SkyTeam's livery is better than the Star Alliance & OneWorld looks. SkyTeams has a certain look of elegan
34 Airbuseric: The elegance is gone when you enter the cabin
35 MCOflyer: I think this planes livery is better than the Star Alliance one by a long shot. Facor in the 77W and you have a sweat looking machine. Now lets hope K
36 Ncfc99: I quite like the star planes that are white with a black tail, however, skyteam have come up with a fantastic livery. The AF and KL 773's look superb
37 KL911: Are there any pics from this mornings arrival?? Please share!! KL911
38 WouterB: I don't know if the picture in this article is from this mornings arrival but it is another picture of KL's newest bird: The article is about a specia
39 KL1291: Unfortunate no pictures made, but i saw BVD taxiing near to Bravo platform (to the welcome comity) this morning. Looked stunning!! KL1291
41 Seemyseems: Great pictures! Thanks for posting.
42 EPA001: Very nice. Thanks for posting these pictures. The pictures are taken near the A-pier?
43 Trinxat: Looks very nice indeed! And definitely more premium looking than the dull "smurf blue" KLM livery The problem as said on other posts is that you get v
44 747ata32: Ehh... VERY near... Actually, I had the privilege to be at stand A34 when BVD arrived Regards, Frank
45 WouterB: So when will its first commercial service be?
46 KL911: Thanks!! What a beauty! Shame for the weather though.. First time I think it looks better then KLM blue....
48 Hardiwv: Fantastic photos, cant wait to see her flying AMS-GRU! Rgs,
49 Hardiwv: It makes sense considering the aircraft is named after National Park Amboseli (Kenya). Rgs,
50 EPA001: Lucky you! (Or unlucky me ). But you compensated this bad luck of mine with your pictures.
51 KL911: Is this a regular 777W route, or just for this special first revenue flight?
52 Hardiwv: See below - KLM B77W Winter Schedule (by Hardiwv Aug 23 2009 in Civil Aviation) It is for the inaugural flight only while NBO will revert to B77W fro
