Using the Availability Tool it looks like tomorrow's VS08 (Aug 10th) has been switched to a non-suite plane! Can anyone confirm??

Thanks

As a follow up question, are there any 747's that do NOT have suites but DO have V.Port? I think the answer is no but I know an expert here will correct me if need be.

As I was trying to switch from the VS24 to the VS08 there seems to be little point if I would get a non-suite, non-V.Port plane :-(

All the V:Port 744's have UCS, these are:

G-VHOT
G-VWOW
G-VROC
G-VBIG
G-VFAB (due to re-enter service soon)

UCS with odyssey are:

G-VTOP
G-VAST

J2000 with odyssey:

G-VXLG (due in for UCS but not V:Port after FAB gets back)

Think thats right - I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong ;)

G-VFAB is back in service now. has been operating JFK (VS03/04) and EWR (VS01/02) since the weekend.
I hope its not to late as you are flying soon but the VS8 tonight is XLG (Ruby Tuesday) non suite.

As it looks like I will have to remain on the VS24 rather than switch to the VS08, do you know which plane is covering that route today? Hopefully one of the "better" A340s.
